Vision of Love
Like a hand-me-down sweater
Love fits me better
The more my heart grows
I can feel it speaking
Leaking out my pours like salty sweat
It spreads like wild fire or a common cold
Soul to soul
Bold enough to get in my face
Beam into my being
Embrace dark place by dark place
It traces me back to my bare beginnings
Before I was sinning
Before I was winning or losing
Before I was choosing
Between life or death
Before I was left
Stretched between different missions
I have a vision of love
Chasing me home
Inside my own bones
Where I can hold
That half-naked born-faded baby boy
Playing hide-and-seek
In the neighborhood cemetery
Deep in my heart
Where love is buried.
