Love Hides

When you leave,
I fear that I will go blind,
For your beauty is all I see,
But I would rather go blind,
Than not see you at all,

When you are near,
I fear that I will die,
For you take my breath away,
But I would rather die,
Than not be close to you,

I love only you,  
But I fear my love for you is a 
punishment from god,
And that at loves end I shall 
see hell,
But I would rather see hells’ 
eternity, 
Than not love you at all,

I think about you every waking 
hour,
You walk into my dreams,
I see you in every woman I 
meet, 

But I fear I will never find 
you...

I search...

Love hides...
