Submitting to Each Other

Submitting to each other
as to the master’s plan
cleaving to the other
together we are one

Love to guide us
as Christ shared with man
not friendship or eros
something much deeper than this

To be loving, submitting
our self poured out
filled only with God’s love
grace to be poured out

Filling the other
and ourself in the giving
submitting to each other
that we each would be filled
