Do you know how you shine with my radiance?
Can you hear my name for you?
“My beloved, my delight.”
I said it to you at your baptism;
I whisper it to you every day.
You were born of light.
Sometimes it’s only a mountaintop experience
that reveals it clearly,
but once you’ve seen, you know.
No one can build a monument to it,
no one can capture it,
but it’s there, as secret as the sun.
Do you realize the ancients
walk with you, murmur to you,
cheer you on?
It’s true, from the mountain
you see the cross,
but also the horizon beyond.
Will you go there?
Will you walk in love?
My dearest, I want you with me.
Will you be my Valentine?
Will you take my love
to an uncertain world?
Will you carry my love
like a little red candy heart,
to a world needing to know?
I’m with you.
I love you.
Will you be mine?
