Love

How am I fretting for your wet touch 

This mouth in a desert since you depart-ed

These hands are blind with touch 

Their fingers in doors jammed 

Where is love? 

-

Where is the deep sea 

Now the land is dust and 

The sea at low tide 

I abide by the laws of nature 

Where is love?

-

Alexander the Great 

With your army a conqueror 

Your armour in time past 

A force of man - yet 

Where is love? 

-

I saw you and 

You conquered 

This heart a green field of 

Roses red with passion 

Where is love? 

-

I have written to you 

This letter a testament 

Your broken promise 

A rugged cliff in an empty land 

Where is love? 

-

A rugged cliff in an empty land 

Where is love?
