Invested

I see it in your eyes

You have hopes and dreams about me
But you don’t see
that this is not transactional

What you offer is incomprehensible,
Sacred, immeasurable

I didn’t deserve it
I didn’t earn it
But it will reach me…

In silence, it will meet me
And leave me
Feeling loved
Feeling touched
By something I cannot explain,
But want to

Still,
I won’t be charmed by you

I won’t be mesmerised
But interested
And very much invested

In understanding this enchantment,
This mysterious blessing

Captured and enthralled
By the faith it’s resurrecting
