Day 19 (Mon, 24th April 2006):
What Good Is Love
I waited for your love in hope,That ours would come again,
And make me feel the things I felt,
When we were one, back then.
But time and distance have erased,
The things I wished anew,
And now I find myself alone,
Though I am here with you.
What good is love, that does not touch,
What good is love, that gives you pain.
What good is love, that makes you run,
And makes you lost out in the rain.
I travelled to another world,
Out far beyond the one we knew,
I thought that I could live again,
And now I find I'm back with you.
But what of hearts that beat as one,
And what of passion and embrace,
Is it too much to ask of you,
To make these tears of mine erase.
What good is love, that does not touch,
What good is love, that gives you pain.
What good is love, that makes you run,
And makes you lost out in the rain.
Too painful this - to journey back,
To times of love and laughter free,
The times we lay together with
A sense of you , a sense of me.
So now, I journey on alone,
Forever wandering, in my thoughts,
And I shall ask you once again,
What good is love.
Love has no other desire but to fulfil itself.
ReplyDeleteBut if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.
The Prophet, Kahlil Gibran
Daddy,
ReplyDeleteI know it's hard for you to see tomorrow
Now that mummy is gone
It's harder still to realize
That our life will still go on
But the Lord told me
That he won't give you burdens
He knows you cannot bear
He will not leave you comfortless
You'll always find Him there
Mummy is walking close to God
Surrounded by His love.
He has in turn sent me down to earth
Your Chosen child by birth
Your Chosen child I really am
Daddy,
I am here to fill your heart with love
And void your heart of emptiness
I will drive away the sadness
And fill your days with happiness.
I want to take care of you, Daddy,
And be there for you come what may
But for now Daddy,
I am small and weak
Just hang in there and wait for me
I will grow up and it won’t take very long
I Promise.
