The Meaning of Forever

I love you forever.
I love you in this lifetime,
in all lifetimes, and beyond time.
I love you personally, transpersonally,
and as the Divine loves the Divine.
I am devoted beyond devotion.
I am committed all the way.
I am offering everything:
the entirety of my life
and all of my love.
My hands long
to hold you
on Earth.
I love you.
I adore you.
I treasure you
beyond measure.
I cherish you always.

All I give to you in service.
All I offer with steadfastness.
I desire only the consummation
of Spirit through our joined souls.
I am completely yours in all ways.
I am faithfully, enduringly yours.
This love is the eternal burning,
the yearning never to separate,
the yen to expedition in oneness:
the perennial, undeniably personal,
yet ultimately radically all-embracing
secret and sacred meaning of forever.

This poem is part of a collection titled The Longing of God for God.
