you fill me
every time I open my mouth to sing.
every time I read the words you wrote
just for me.
every time I remember what you’ve already done
to show me
that you love me.
you fill me
and I overflow,
emotion spilling from my edges
and pooling in a moat around me.
I let anyone swim
in the overabundance of your love.
anyone can share in the goodness
but always I know
that I am only able to love others
because first
you fill me.
