Where Love Lives
Hope melts the hues of melancholy
Mystical colors of disgrace and shame
Beckoning for me, hoping to give me
Names of despair, disillusion, desolation
All the adjectives of dismay, discouragement
Words that create a place of disappointment
For the world to see just how difficult life
Can be for someone like me, who is filled
With sorrow and grief, without any relief
Hope hurries to my heart with visions of
Insight, inspiration and enlightenment
Joy in knowing that I have a new day to
Reach for my dreams and those visions
That make their way through my soul’s
Paths, showing me how to give back to
Others, those who come into my life with
Needs for healing and letting go of the past
Where they’ve been hurt or left their grief
Hope meets me at the crossroads of love
And hate, where I need to learn what it means
To feed the one and let the other starve to
Death, leaving the way open for more love
To enter in and give back to the world around
Me, feelings of compassion, passion and gentle
Whispers of sensitivity and musical notes of
Soothing silence which beckons to the spirit
With a sense of purest light from the Father
Hope breaths sensations of joy through me
Arousing my fervor for more ardor that comes
From allowing God to guide me through this
Place down here into a paradise that is spiritual
And filled with glories so rich and delicious that
I only know bliss, sweet serenity and gentle
Stillness with soft lights that paint the entire
Universe in shades of appreciation and charm
Love that goes on and on… forever alive inside
Hope welcomes me back home… to heaven
Where every heart knows the meaning of true
Love, joy and faith,… praise that is eternal
Guiding the heart through door after door of
Rich, golden sighs that gently tug at the visions
Brought about by the promise of eternity in
Heaven, where God allows us to live forever
With His Son, the One who died on a cross long ago
And gave us all the chance to go where LOVE is
