A Poem for My Beloved

When I think
Of all the hurt I’ve caused,
Of endless tears, I paused;
And you were there.

On the brink
Of utter ruin I see a ray
Of shining hope, bright as day,
And answered prayer.

Though the course
Of forever love seems hard,
Of forgiveness, though deeply scarred,
We go together.

With deep remorse
Of my sin and shame,
Of transformed heart - not the same,
We are forever.
