Imperfect Heart
by Zachary
Imperfect heart
you have much to learn
about perfectly loving.
Resisting
as you do
acceptance
of imperfect man.
Hating
most ardently
reflections
of your own
imperfect nature.
Loathing
as you do
past sins
wearing
unfamiliar faces.
You have much to learn
about perfectly loving
imperfect man.
Wise words. The struggle will be one’s life’s work, but in time we get ever closer to the kind of love that makes the days worth waking up to and the person we’re with a fine consort for our souls.
PS. Love on.
Thank you, Iris. I think we all struggle with an imperfect heart. But the work of this lifetime is to grow it until it consumes the world. Only then will our hearts be perfect and free. ❤
Totally agree.
