Describing Love

Love is the bind between sighs and cries
And can release warm light upon the dark
Has the strength to move within lows and highs
And shine on troubled hearts with rainbow's arc
Love is a realm with dreams of tomorrow
Will build a world within a world yet known
Can heal an injured soul of its sorrow
And will inlay in a heart a truth to own
Love can keep the long years through days of gray
And is a universe which never grows small
Will walk the graveled roads and always stay
And has deepest feelings at beckoned call
The sounds from love's strong heartbeat can enslave
To be the music heard until the grave
