[bodytext] => You have walked upon the water I have written about. In vain, I tried to describe the object that you have mastered beneath your feet. So far the road is I've still to conquer and within a shared breath you have finished the journey in a single stride. And within your stride, you gave me a glimpse of what I need to understand. This is your gift. But my how the mighty have fallen when strong legs and arrogance have crumbled. Crumbled in a vain attempt to show respect to the lamb who has conquered the lion. You now lay content with your predator with whom you have given asylum in your bed. You have always excelled in fighting the battles inside. The world is no longer the battlefield, it is your playground. Still, you let me tag along and let me play as children want to. Shall I call you woman. No. Shall I call you wife, sister, mother, Mary. No. Since I know of only my fleshly confessions, such grand conceptions are beyond me.
