Dear Love

Dear Love
I hope that you embrace me with joy
I ask that you ease the pain,
and shine without hesitation

Dear Love
I ask that when you arrive, sit in 
the closet chair
Whisper forget me knots and sonnets
sprinkle rain of joy, like confetti
I ask that you be gentle, not shy away
from difficulties, to embrace the ugly 
with beauty and grace

Dear Love
If you leave, please leave the door open
do not regret visiting these dorms of
sadness and strife
If you leave , do not forget to visit
with welcoming arms once again
