Now I Know Where True Love Is
I'm wondering where true love is
is it somewhere across the bridge
Or is somewhere above the sky
Or is over the mountain ridge
Or is it just deep down inside
Buried deep down within
Way beneath my own skin
Or did love get blown away
Away by the angry wind
Is it somewhere within my reach
Or somewhere across the foreign sea
Or is it just an ancient concept
A concept full of imagery
Will it wilt or will it wither
Will it ever be discovered
Is love somewhere being smothered
Or is it somewhere above the sky
Or Somewhere over the mountain ridge
Whisked away by the winds
Or somewhere deep inside
Tucked like a pedal into a stem
Plucked for a wife
love like a scent
Love that expires
Or grows thin
Love that wilts and runs away
Love like clothing in disarray
Beaten and raped
Scraped and bruised
I found her
Lying naked
Dead
Clothing removed
Now I know where love is
