Darling, Who Are You?
Who am I in a sea of galaxies?
Who am I in the presence of raging waters?
Who am I in the absence of lights and perfections?
Who am I in a world of deceptions and assertions?
Who am I in the face of injustices?
Who am I in the face of maltreatment?
Who am I in secret; in the dark of night?
Who am I in the heart and streets of Caracas?
Who am I in the company of the affluent?
Who am I in the praise of men?
Who am I in the midst of wolves in sheep’s clothing?
Who am I with the imprint of a darling lover?
Who am I when I am filled on every side?
Who am I when I have rest on every side?
Who am I when the tempests roar and the billows roll?
Who am I when the eyes of men cease to linger on me for a moment?
Who am I when a sukkah and a shuka is all I own?
Who am I when all is said and done?
Who am I when the curtains fold and the show is over?
Who am I when there is nothing to show for my life but my heart only?
What remains of me in the end?
Who am I?
I know who I am:
I am in danger of self-deception every moment.
Lord Jesus, only make me who You are.
