YOU are

YOU Are

You are the flame
Within the candle’s light
You are the fire
Within its heat
The wind inside each 
Taken breath
The song that causes
My small heart to beat

Without YOU, 
I would not,
Could not
Begin to exist
Your love alone helps me
Each of this dark world’s lusts
To resist

Praise you, 
Thank you
YAHWEH,
God,
Father,
For helping me along
Each of life’s most treacherous
Precarious turns & twists!!
