Where Love Resides

Love's imperfection makes us strong love has no time to be annoyed no room for doubt or jealousy. Where live resides there is no void. That flesh that was not of my flesh whose life I chose to share I almost lost my one true love in distrusts explosive flare. Only once did doubt imprison hold me fast -it made no sound. And in a panic I relentless did not trust what I had found. I worried all about his past of his life where I'd not been I was envious of the life he had was sad I didn't know him then. Where love resides there is no void no room for jealousy, distrust or doubt Those evil thoughts destroy our lives Doubt always tries to push love out. But love it took up residence within this hopeful heart I will not envy where he's been I consider 'now' our start.
