~ Manifestation of Love ~

~ Manifestation of Love ~

I used to know a hundred songs

about that place in love where pain belongs

no reconciliation was ever found

between heart and head, only strife came ‘round.

I wandered beneath a lonely moon

the music in my heart, adrift and out of tune

just the haunting strings of the mandolin

seeping through my veins to reside within.

I sought answers to questions I needn’t have asked

I didn’t know at the time, my die had been cast

gliding on moonbeams, soft whispers came through:

“You don’t find love…..love finds you.”

As such, it came unexpected

with an acceptance of Fate, unprecedented

our friendship suddenly became clear to me

to be your anything love, was meant to be.

An anything love, is just as it implies

unbiased and just, no conditions or why’s

to be what you need through life’s various stages

to remain your constant, throughout the ages.

It’s a love through action, as the words are unspoken

no need for return, sentiments can be broken

promises not uttered, for fear of breach

manifested from truth, with intent to reach.

I used to know a hundred songs

with verses tripping over rights and wrongs

it took the moon for me to see

Fate provides the lyrics, we are the melody.
