Loves Gift

This is not about me, it's make pretend,
I'll hide my pain so you can understand,
I know I've kept it locked inside,
I've helped others and it heals the hurt I hide,
In my search for understanding I've reached out,
Because love is the only thing in my life that has no doubt,
Bringing me closer even when I feel far,
Its in that love you have touched my heart,
When nothing makes sense in the midst of that pain,
It is in your love that helps me to breathe again,
The focus of heartache no longer has control,
The gift of your love is music to my soul,
It keeps us tightly woven together,
We stand for one another through all types of weather,
When we see each other hurt we come to their aid,
While sharing our hearts, love heals the pain,
Hurts existence becomes shallow, love replaces fear,
We are able to face the feelings we feel.
