Apples and Jewels

Daily they serenade You with love songs old and new. How I long to romance You the same way they do.
You are most adored of all. Many are they who pursue You.
As I gaze upon Your beauty, their desire for You becomes no mystery.
How then can you notice me? Will You ever notice me?
To be the apple of your eye seems like a distant dream for a girl like me who can't seem to do anything for you to be pleased.

In the myriad of voices, I deplete mine to a hush.
Unknowingly, You look to me and see what I do not see - a beautiful woman in the fullness of Your glory.

In the sweetest of words, You are the one who serenades me. You surprise me in the most loving ways I've always longed someone was to me.
For so long, how my heart has failed to see Your heart that loves me for me.
In Your indescribable love, I thank You for revealing that, in Your sight, I can be more than an apple.

I am more than an apple. I am Your jewel.
