Love

Ever the shadow looms over the dark, dreary night.
That which was thought to be understanding turns to insecurity.
The hours float by as we try to reach enlightenment.
Love is the mystery yet to be solved,
And fear burrows into brave men's hearts as she stares into his soul,
But warmth comes into his heart as her gaze shifts to his eyes,
And in her eyes he sees the emotions in his heart returned.
The shadow is lifted and we begin to understand that which we are born to do,
Love.
