Love Cannot Die
Once birthed in the human heart, love cannot die.
Its host may abandon it, but it has a life of its own.
It becomes an eternal verity perpetuated on high.
Legions hail it, claiming it in mind, brain, and bone.
Love prevails over all hatred civil humans abhor—
Over war and prejudice and acts that make us cry.
Those who practice love are believers to the core
Their very lives echo the truth that love cannot die.
