The Root of Love

The root of love

                                Comes from the principles of faith
                                To claim it one needs grace.
                                A grace so defined that one will know
                                That the root of love tends to glow.

                                The root of love is the key beyond life
                                Something that claims a sacrifice.
                                A sacrifice of comfort and that desire of
                                For desire brings forth compassions love.

                                The root of love knows loves pain
                                And the memory that forgot shame.
                                For if from pain love is found
                                Than loves root is firmly sound.
