Surrender

Surrender

There is a beauty that steals the breath away
A wrenching beauty the drives past what the eyes alone can see
Shining twisting glory that exposes the deepest heart of hearts
In its presence the is no fear no hates no loss
Peace itself is chaotic and joy weeps before it

For this beauty every living creature yearns and seeks
Gold decays and becomes worthless before this beauty fades
Wisdom is but foolishness and light turns to dusk without it
For this beauty invigorates life itself in endless ways

Each breath it steals it returns twofold each sweeter than the last
Lustrously it radiates its beauty about all that is near
Every sound a song and each scent a rose

When two create this binding beauty a miracle occurs
All effort and sacrifice become hidden for all time

This is the beauty that cannot be conquered but found only through surrender
