Eternal Love
The world,in touch with one another
Mends with thoughts of lifeless lovers
And first love begins with the love of father and mother
And as we age and mold, we learn to love each other
As moments of fleeting love, feelings cast like stones in water
Still can live and grow, until the stones grow into boulders
And you could see the magic forming, fitting
And you learn to know that love is different for every being
Lonely roses, and withered Chrysanthemums
The soil beneath their feet, crest that sends them on
A human being who’s mind is fleeing to imagination’s second sun
And somewhere another one’s heart longs for a different kind of one
And two worlds so far apart, and unlike anyone before
Or since, reminiscent of love that was loved long, long ago
A love that brought them into this world and let them learn to let love grow
For love was only on this Earth to give ourselves a sense of soul
And if we’re only here for each other, to help each other from getting cold
And not having the touch of another person’s love before getting old
It’s a love that can’t put into words
It’s a love that only comes from being torn
And put together from greater force than anyone
Though we try to learn about it, we can’t escape it’s clutching touch
But be not afraid for it’s the greatest lift to ever have known
And if you think you’ll never find it, just think about it happening to everyone
Make your love that’s internal
Blended hearts, eternal and new
Until you’re one, no longer two
And make the love that has a few
It’s a love that can only become eternal
