Love Is the Essence of My Existence

Love Is The Essence Of My Existence


Through many tears shed in darkness we now come to the light
 I bowed my head to pray for a woman of my dreams
 Not long knowing the true sentiment came flowing
 We sit on an island feeling empty inside
 With walls torn to pieces then thrown in the oven of affliction
 Some suffer through the inner silence with a sense of solace
 Truly a love does know how a beautiful flower grows
 With sweet sentiments of kindness left behind a true meaning
 Love is the essence of my existence through borrowed pews resistance
 A red rose is a tiny symbol of our love for each other
 The spice of life with colors of blue and white
 To travel each beckoning heights along life's duration
 The soft touch of a romantic kiss will bring on the fascination
 Come near to hear the pulse on the fullest of heart
 For you had lit the inner most spark of what I was truly waiting for
 Love has gained it also has lost humanities most heaviest of cost
 Through stained glass windows one can get a glimpse of the sun
 Human hearts blown apart in their quest to have a bit of fun
