The Light of Love

Through the darkness, there came a light 
Though so far but yet so bright. 
I close my eyes and look deep insight.. 
I walk this darkness without a fright. 

I clutch this image like a precious sight, 
The one that sets my heart alight. 
I hold that thought and now I write, 
With the thought of us on this night. 

I travel this road to find affection 
I now edge closer and taste perfection. 
The darkness evades, I've found protection 
I reach this light to build my connection. 

My strength has now so briskly grown, 
I no longer feel I travel alone. 
I continue to proceed on this empty path, 
The wait is long but I show no wrath. 

The star may seem so far away, 
I set fourth my travels to meet that day. 
I hold my faith and wait these years, 
So far I've come, its worth those tears. 

I stand, I sit and now I stare, 
I look beyond me and see you there. 
I've found the light and now I smile, 
I've found my strength to crawl this mile. 

I accept love like its my treat, 
The thought is real, I'm now complete. 
I hear sweet voices in my head, 
They say my path is clear ahead. 

Some just try but yet they fail, 
The unconditional love that we prevail. 
I had my freedom, I made this choice, 
I found my love, I now rejoice. 

I never believed I'd find this love, 
Like that beautiful star from above. 
I questioned love and what I feel 
With you I learnt my love is real.
