Answer Love

Holding within 
the hands 
Bizarre feelings 
In a coil 
full of emotions 
In the nature 
Of it 
what would 
Shakespeare say 
Is it to be 
Or not to be 

In answer to 
A thousand questions 
Challenging within 
Wandering lonely 
In many's 
a town 

Dreaming in heather 
Lying on the hill 
Staring into clouds 
A host 
of silver stars 
One cross 
to bare 
Different shapes 
And forms 
Finding love 
is to be 

Into dark clouds 
Carrying feelings 
With us 
A soul speaks 
From hidden depths 
The black dragon 
Monster of 
The deep 
Fire scorching 
Within the chamber walls 
Burning deep 
not to be 

The present 
Of passed sins 
Bestowed on love 
Or not to love 
One question asked 
I arise 
to this almighty challenge 
Arise love 
Humbling word 
The soul 
Pulls all strings 

Heartbreaks easily 
Will love again 
When embers light 
A blazing inferno 
To be found 
In heaven 
Also hell
