It is not about whether he loves you or she loves you or even just love. Love is easy, we were created to love and be loved. But love has become perverted by our sin. Are we loving as God does? We can not love in the entirety or with the depth that He does but we were created to love Like He does. Do you love your boyfriend or girlfriend, husband OE wife like Christ loves? Are you loved by your other like God loves you? That is love. Everything else is a shadow or perversion of the real thing.
- Jonathan Gomez
These are poems, songs, short essays that I have written along with other matters of the heart. Some are old and eventually they will all be new stuff. I hope to hear your thoughts. It is a blog after all.

Thank you Jesus
This is a break from the normal poetry.
I just have to say that I seem to have learned a lot so far in 2013. Reading the posts from times before I realize that I just didn't get it. Not saying that I do now but seriously?! I had no Idea what love really was.......Ok I did but not the kind of love that I was seeking and seeking to give. I am still learning but I am not learning from my own feelings or from a woman. Mind you I am realizing a lot from the love I have for a woman but I am not learning love from that I can only see it. I learned and am learning it from God and the way He loves us and the way that Jesus loves us. If the love between a man and a woman is not like that between God and us (Not the same as. We can not love the same that God loves but we can try to and can love like or similarly to the way God loves.) then it is not the way that it should be.
God calls men to love his wife as Christ loves the church and gave himself up for her. It is a self sacrificing love for her glory and salvation. Jesus came to save and to serve and to love. God pursues us all through scripture as we need to pursue our wife not just to make her our wife but to keep her and make her feel wanted and needed and Romances. The bible is a love letter to all of humanity. It is filled with Gods love, romance, adventure, humor, beauty, strength, Masculinity and Femininity. If we are to understand love we need to be looking to the expert. Not our own desires. Seek Him and you will find it. Seek a man or a woman or things and they will always elude. Seek God and He will add these things to you.
Thank you Jesus

I will not wait
I will not wait and sit idly by
As you pass through this world by and by
As you live and build your life
As you hide from and prepare for love
Some might wait for you to conquer your fear
Or wait as you build a career
Boys sit by and hope for a chance
Hoping you pick them with lust their eyes burn
I will not wait and sit idly by
Like those without heart and whose metal goes untested
Cowards stand by and wait to be given that which is unearned
I will not wait an sit idly by
I will fight!
With every flower and every kiss
Every look and every touch
Every date and every call
Every day and every hour
I fight for you
I fight your your love
That of my love
I will not wait
I will fight
Fight for the one I would make my queen
As you pass through this world by and by
As you live and build your life

I will not wait and sit idly by
Like those without heart and whose metal goes untested
Cowards stand by and wait to be given that which is unearned
I will not wait an sit idly by
I will fight!
With every flower and every kiss
Every look and every touch
Every date and every call
Every day and every hour
I fight for you
I fight your your love
That of my love
I will not wait
I will fight
Fight for the one I would make my queen

Why I look at you
You ask me "What?"
I say "Nothing"
In a moment of weakness I do not tell the truth
I am looking at you
Yo know that I am
Deep down in side you wonder why
Even deeper still you have hope
that you are beautiful as you long to be
The image of Gods beauty
In all of creation you are his masterpeice
we watch the sunset and then the sunrise
all of the beautiful colors painted in the sky
the leaves that were green turn yellow and orange
flowers start blooming, a color collage
still as we watch them we talk of the beauty
we never wonder why we are looking
but before my eyes you sit a wonder
in natures company you do defy
a more radiant and mysterious beauty
woman I find
The moon and stars and sunset skies are found in your eyes
the petals of roses lay in your cheeks
the softness of lilies does you skin defy
fields of wheat and valleys of trees are like the flowing hair but not so fine
every day the morning sun shall rise to give light for our eyes
but not hope like the shine of your smile
rivers flow graceful and tight but still the form of your body brings more delight
your heart burns true, more than the most brilliant of flames
more precious than gold mor brilliant than silver
stronger than diamonds and more beautiful too
you sit there and ask me why I am looking at you
It is because you are beautiful
more than I can ever explain
I say "Nothing"
In a moment of weakness I do not tell the truth
I am looking at you
Yo know that I am
Deep down in side you wonder why
Even deeper still you have hope
that you are beautiful as you long to be
The image of Gods beauty
In all of creation you are his masterpeice
we watch the sunset and then the sunrise
all of the beautiful colors painted in the sky
the leaves that were green turn yellow and orange
flowers start blooming, a color collage
still as we watch them we talk of the beauty
we never wonder why we are looking
but before my eyes you sit a wonder
in natures company you do defy
a more radiant and mysterious beauty

the petals of roses lay in your cheeks

but not hope like the shine of your smile

more precious than gold mor brilliant than silver
stronger than diamonds and more beautiful too
