Captain of my Soul

by Alisa Js

if I set a place for two
inside my heart with the rising of each dawn
one for me and the other, you
and keep the fires burning bright in complete confidence
knowing, we'll never stray
how glorious our lives could be
shared,
planning
playing
anticipating ...

we were designed for companionship and not for being alone
sailing on some ghastly boat
full of memories
created long ago in some distant breadth
long dead and fading past,
regardless of the 'know-it-alls'
the 'what nots' and 'wanna be's'
a better way exists than this one-legged banjo show ...

for in the arithmetic of unity
one plus one is one
a picture of God's love, replete
captain of my soul
measure of my being
the depth of ecstasy complete is knowing you're for me,
eternally, be it so ...
