O Love
O love that holds me deeper and closer
Flowing flawlessly within my being
Even when they try to find an error
I still see a whole you knit within me
Your love so fresh like the milk in my
mother’s gourd
Refreshing my weary soul at each
touch
Of your love, O love
O love, that lets not go of me
In my days of bloom and my days of
gloom
I ponder on the yarns that wound our
hearts together
So skillfully and so beautifully
That am lost in you so
If we weren’t meant to be,
Couldn’t the differences they have
tried to conceive work?
It is with no shadow of a doubt, that
they are the strands
Of your love, O love
O love, that seeks me through pain
The desire of my eye and the delight
of my soul
How do you guess the needs in my
inmost being?
That you meet that grim being within
me and tarry in there?
Many a people have reached there and
dared not to linger
At the dreary me deep inside
Beyond the edgy smile on my
countenance
But you zealously cheer me up with
that magic
Of your love, O love
