In Love

Jesus and us; this love story between God and us was written by John of the Cross which I believe was supposed to be a Spanish free-form version of Song of Songs (the full version can be found here: http://www.ccel.org/ccel/john_cross/canticle.html) I hope this helps you be near to our Beloved God today. Like kissing him in the middle of a street in Turin (like these two above ^)

Spiritual Canticle of the Soul and the Bridegroom, John of the Cross

Stanzas 24-26, 28-32

Our bed is of flowers

By dens of lions encompassed,

Hung with purple,

Made in peace,

And crowned with a thousand shields of gold.

In your footsteps

The young ones run Your way;

At the touch of the fire

And by the spiced wine,

the divine balsam flows.

In the inner cellar

Of my Beloved have I drunk; and when I went forth

Over all the plain

I knew nothing,

And lost the flock I followed before.

My soul is occupied,

And all my substance in His service;

Now I guard no flock,

Nor have I any other employment;

My sole occupation is love.

If, then, on the common land

I am no longer seen or found,

You will say that I am lost;

That, being enamored,

I lost myself; and yet was found.

Of emeralds, and of flowers

In the early morning gathered,

We will make the garlands,

Flowering in Your love,

And bound together with one hair of my head.

By that one hair

You have observed fluttering on my neck,

And on my neck regarded,

You were captivated;

And wounded by one of my eyes.

When You regarded me,

Your eyes imprinted in me Your grace:

For this You loved me again,

And thereby my eyes merited

To adore what in You they saw.
