love

Love, oh love,

Whispers in the night,
Tears in the rain,
Joy's fleeting flight,
Sweet, sweet pain.

Honey-dipped kisses,
Thorns on a rose,
Missin' what misses,
Where the lonely wind blows.

Warmth in the cold,
Fire in the ice,
Stories untold,
Rollin' the dice.

Silent prayers,
Echoin' in the void,
Love's affairs,
Beautifully destroyed.

Rivers of sorrow,
Oceans of bliss,
Borrowed tomorrows,
Sealed with a kiss.

A dance in the dark,
A shadow's embrace,
Igniting the spark,
In love's endless chase.
