ineffable.

long quiet drives, silent tears
thoughts and ideas in your head,
unlocking subconscious fears

head down, to hide the tear stained cheeks
voice shakes when she finally speaks
and the usual nervous boy, says an eloquent prayer tonight...

the group of common off-key vocals
are something angelic tonight,
out in this warm air; out in pure light

the nights air is warm on my brow
yet my knees tremble and shake
teeth chatter as though I'm standing in cold weather; but I remain still

a box of tissues passed around for the running noses and wet eyes
look up, up at the star-lit sky
powerful tears running down your chin, and onto the damp ground

I whisper 'amen', as we finish off with my favorite hymn tonight...

turn around...

friendly, yet powerful hugs
try to dry my flushed face
one more hug of the night,
the longest and tightest embrace

exchange three words that meant the world to me...
I can feel the inspiration of love present

long quiet drives, silent tears
thoughts and ideas in your head
unlocking subconscious fears

it might be hard to tell
but when all was said and done
I promised; you're in the presence of God's pure love, and of angels tonight...



there is no explanation.
there are no right words.
amazing. intense. loving. GOD.
