I Can't Get Close Enough

I reach out my hands to draw you in,
but I can't get close enough.

I see you in each smiling face,
tho I can't get close enough.

I whisper your name in the stillness of night,
still I can't get close enough.

I breathe you in with every flowery fragrance,
I can't get close enough.

My soul craves your touch,
I can't get close enough.

I kneel my knee at the wood,
again I can't get close enough.

Then you come and dwell within,
suddenly you are close enough.

Magnifique!!! Vous avez a don pour écrire.
Quand j'était jeune j'écrivais des poêmes. Bien entendu sans le Seigneur. Ecrivez-vous aussi en français?

God bless you and your ministry.
