The Power of Love

The Power of Love Everybody’s got something to give And lessons to learn Often In the thick of things When hope is gone When horror consumes One’s mind and his existence When I look back Fear in its intensity surround me Even now it feels like a nightmare Among dreams Open up your eyes Do not be despised To Ill will and disguise The devil is alive In people’s hearts and in their minds Blinding you with the spell of charm Which they call love, romance Calculated to the very detail A game of no limitation Lost to the girl living in a fantasy world Redemption from the Lord above And forgiveness of the self above all else Has been the one remedy for my heart to do its work It could have been worst But I survived To learn that love and trust Is magnified beyond the limits of this world To the kingdom of God Marckincia Jean Free verse 11/09/19
