" Your eyes tell your story, sister,
and I must listen—
locked in your honest gaze.
For you have captured me,
and your deep-welled goodness
softens and reminds me of,
my essential self—
before I sold my soul
to Security and Comfort
and Compromise.
I think I love you.
And I tremble
in that truth—
for I looked into your eyes
and I cannot, ever,
be the same.
You have given more,
Jesus said,
than all the rest…
You have given more
than I…
For I have never been
that poor,
I have never been
that rich. "
