So Loved
So Loved
Expressions of love
words do not need
A touch so simple
so electric can be
that a new life can start
immediately
A glance
then a stare
beauty unveiled
beyond compare
a look in an eye
an almost unheard sigh
a heart beat skipped
serve to brighten many a sky
Love is never promised
and may not be true
Love untried, worse yet
diminishes the amount
of life we get
For love to be
ever true
There is something that
you need to do
Go to the source
where love abounds
and ask of He who sits there
Is there any love to spare
In a voice so gentle and kind
He bids you come forth and find
More love than ever you will need
and for this love you don't have to plead
A love on a level
you cannot believe
finally your angst
will be relieved
You hear His voice
it massages your soul
You've only to ask
and I'll overfill your bowl
Is this love real
or do I count it loss
For the answer to that
Just look to the cross.
