Simplicity, Father?
By: Jerry Landry

(For Alex)

Is it really that simple?
I love him, and he loves me.
God, Lord, my Father who art in heaven,
is it really that simple?
Out of the complexities
that make up this world,
is the most important thing,
the greatest thing on Your creation,
really that simple?

Father, I'm in love.
I ask for your approval
to be with him forever
to be his, and to have him
be mine, now until eternity.
Have we done this before?
I swear that we have,
some other age,
some other face,
some other me,
but I'll ask again,
reaffirm what I already know.
Father, may I?
