I Love You In A Very Particular Way Poem by Joseph S. Josephides

I love you in a very particular way, creation of Love
I believe in all of yours, have no need to see them,
look at high how the nature performs its miracle
how love handles our souls, hoe nicely she
gives birth to many hands so I hold you tightly,
to many eyes, so that you don’t lack anything,
to many ears, so that I listen to your sorrows,
to many feet, to run where you are thrown down.

If I ever be unfair to you call me cruel robber,
but if you do wrong to me my love forgives you,
finds and brings you back, wherever you are lost,
Creature of God, you sinned, nonetheless now
you believe, you love; who am I to judge you?
Better I’m not saved, if I’m saved without you*,
only this way shall I feel glory, joy and wealth.

Any wound is no deeper and wider than our heart,
so if they burry us in a pit covering us with rubbish
sing with me, step on rubbish and escape the pit,
and when I embrace you I glitter as a huge fire,
when I kiss you, two wings sprout on my back,
my nails become gigantic so I can flay the evil
and hook with you onto the branch of the dream.

I love you, therefore you exist, hence I co-exist, **
in fact Love issues the real certificates of birth.
