I’ve been thinking a lot about you this morning, about how much I love you.
It’s like my muscles love you, with the way they ache for you and want to reach out for your face and hands, to touch and hold you.
My very bones request your presence, ask for your attention, for the weight of your body, of your love. My mind’s eye…it too is in love with you. I can tell because of how it is focused on an image of you, how it has memorized your eyes and seems to spend hours on end replaying pictures of you laughing, standing, smiling, moving.
And, of course, my heart. My heart loves you, loves our past with eyes of forgiveness, our present with eyes excitement and our future with eyes of faith.
