love who has me now

Audrey Cook 1955 (Los Angeles)



love
who has me now?
I didnt come looking for you
but you found me, anyhow.
love, why did you come?
I wasnt bothering you
I wasnt hurting anyone
but you came in like the sea
and you washed up over me
you caused my soul to rest
but your light
seized my breath
i wonder is this a test
to revel in beauty so blessed?
love who has me now?
how did i get here
anyhow?
I didnt ask you to make me fall
but i got here anyhow.
tell me why
you are forcing me to stay
when some of me wants to run away
i cant beleive this spark
and the want of
sweet kisses in the dark
please tell me im not a fool
and show me anyhow
love
who has me now?
