"The Groom & Me"
  by geel


Unexpectly...
There stood overflowing love...
The kind of love that's unceasing...
The kind of love that delivered me from my enemies...
The kind of love that echoes clearly...

"I will carry a bond of loyality...towards U...Forever"

Gently...
With humility...
My Groom...
He called softly...
Not on bended knees...

"Geel"
"Will u marry me?"

From my mouth to your ears...
I stay clear of these words used so frivolously...

All at once...
I become speechless...
Flabbergasted...
&
Stunned...

This can't be true?

Tears begun...
To tumble...
One...by...one
As I stumble...

Butterflies set in...
My stomach...
As I begin to shake in my boots...
Apprehensive...
&
Nervous...
Not knowing what to say or do...

With hesitation...I speak

My Groom...
'Why marry me?"

There are...
Many dark secrets I have...
There are...
Many events I can't undo...

"You see...
I am not worthy..."
"I'm filthy..."
"Not even bleach will cleanse me"
I lived recklessly...
I vacated my very own soul...

"Geel"
I am He that loved u when u didn't love me...
I am He that comforts u so u may sleep...
I am He that makes a way for u out of no way...
I am the Potter...and u are the clay...
I am He that understands u...when no one can...
I am He that catches u when u cannot stand...
I am He that rescued u...when u where in to deep...
I am He that was with u in that hotel room...as u contimplate takeing another life...as your hand covered the trigger...of that 238...hand gun...that night

Now do u remember?

I Am He...I Am He

Yes...
My Groom...
I remember...
U saved me from me...
This was just a glimpse of my extended testimony...

So...
U were the One that brougt a smile back to my face...
U where the One who saved me by your grace...
U where the One that directed me to turn left instead of right...
U where the One that held me as I cried throughout the night...
U where the One that took my shame and erased it away...
U where the One that saved my life...so I would live another day...

Yes...Geel
I Am He...I Am He

I will save u...because there is a bigger picture...
"Bigger Things"
If u allow me?

"I must redeem u for the greater good"

Understood?

Yes...
I understand...
"My Groom"
Now I know ...U are not a man...

Therefore...
I surrender...

Now the pride inside I render...

I Will Marry U...

This is very nice. I didn't catch on that you were talking about the Lord until the middle of the poem but that is a good thing. Sometimes you have to keep people guessing so they will continue to read all the way through. Nicely done.

this was a powerful scribe geel! i was wondering where you were taking it and then i found myself hoping you were taking it to certain places then wondering if i was guessing where it would go. bottom line, you were taking it to juicy places that kept me captivated!

Nice...sounds like my groom too...thank God it is impossible for Him to be a bigamist lol...enjoyed your testimony...this was a soft write, somehow...it touched me so softly and gently. Thanks for sharing.

Masterfully written. The compromise of compromise equals willingness to marry. Loving the vibe of you always.

when this type of union takes place - oh what joy will be born unto us all my poet -- you did this one my poet - laying the line of communication and understanding from us to God - you understanding is priceless
