Love Beyond

love deeper than I can know
reaching the depth of my despair,
transforming broken to renewed
for its beauty - is beyond compare.

love defined by His scars
seen in the precious blood He shed,
chosen since the start of time
through its beauty - I am led.

love not held as precious
to cherish for ourselves,
but shared because its precious
for its beauty - compels.

love despite the shadows
through pain, it is my choice,
no matter what the cost
in its beauty - I rejoice.
