93. Therefore I love you

Lord, You are a stranger to tiredness;
Therefore I love You.
Lord, You are a stranger to sleep;
Therefore I love You.
Lord, You are a stranger to dream;
Therefore I love You.
Lord, my darkness hates Your Light;
Therefore I am puzzled.
Lord, my bondage hates Your Freedom;
Therefore I am bewildered.
Lord, my ignorance hates Your Compassion;
Therefore, I am lost, totally lost.
