i have not faith enough (1/24/99) i have not faith enough to make my bid to thee oh courage yes! to get this far i stand in front of thee right here and words are weak alone to show our love could be, or raise from thine heart’s door the bar, though i have overcome much fear, i have not faith alone to make my bid to thee i have not love enough to bind thine heart to me, it lacks one “Yes!” to be complete a man should he not take control? or masked as meek appear to win with feigned defeat he cares not for his lover’s soul! she deep in passion knows its beat! i have not love enough to bind thine heart to me the Mind resounds: “you fool of fools, she knows you not!” then i defy the Mind and say: "at what point e’er does love begin? do both know this then at first glance? This that they know, and thus when one, was it not born before they met? does one of two not firstly love? oh Mind in me, you’ve had your chance! my heart with words in her dear heart would sow: such things oh Mind! you’ll never know!” i still have hope enough to bind her heart to me
