Love Theme From the Ode of Life

i am the little 'eye' seeing life through ignorance
i am the furious soul wishing to understand this life
i am the fear of lighting-flash rivers choking stones!

fear no more the frown of perplexed hearts 
fear no more the loving heart that may heal yours
fear no more the love who is within your path in life

And this day, did you notice?  It is born just for you
the light and air and clouds overtaken you in a way
that clears  fog revealing such bravery  within 
confusion and such deepest pain!

Oh love of mine if i am worthy to say 
stay and hear!  This ocean song is not of waters
but your heart coming that sings both high and low


And what be love?  N'ver the hereafter as pain as
pleasant laughter but the single source of pride:
       roses of red and white, and snow and hair
of black and grey and some perfumes of exquisite 
delight  I love your speak-voice yet i known
your soul and say too that i never have met 
a goddess go;  who met one as my soul
and my truth is not upon a fact based upon 
any lies.
