Untitled - yet again

This was written last year, while at a spiritual retreat... we had been asked to write down what we thought of God, what attributes did we seek in him, what attributes does he, in our opinion lack if any, etc etc... Then at the end, we were supposed to pray for ourselves, the good of everyone present, and for the whole world as well... I instead wrote two poems... one was SAUDAEE, and the other was this... I still haven't found a suitable title for it... I'd highly appreciate if you could suggest a name...



I'm supposed to be praying for my own salvation;
I'm supposed to ask God for my own protection;
Instead here I sit and ask for you,
Your companionship, your love that is true...

I know that I will get salvation in your arms;
I am hypnotised by your charms...
My protection, my future lies with you -
My redemption, reformation, resurrection - all are you.

My happiness, contentment, joy, solace
Lie deep in your arms, your eyes, your face...
I ask you to accept me, to take me,
Make me yours, from now till eternity...
