The Eternal Embrace

There is an embrace wider than skies,
deeper than oceans,
holding every rise and fall
in a love without edges.

I tried to earn it once,
chasing perfection, fearing rejection —
but the arms of the Infinite
had never let me go.

In the eternal embrace,
grace flows unasked,
mercy breathes without limit,
and belonging is not given —
it is revealed as what we always were.

Here, separation melts,
time surrenders,
and the heart remembers:
I am forever home,
forever held
in Love’s endless arms.
