Love’s devotion

I may never know

How how it feels to touch your hand

And this is why now

I am letting go

Do not get me wrong

I am not giving up on us

Or on love

In fact

As I let go

More and more and more love

Floods into my heart

As I feel the sweetest surrender

With falling tears

God only knows what you are going through

And why the powers are failing

To bring me to you

But this much I know

I want to love

And trust

Because to fight and rage

Reduces everything within me to dust

And here in the mellow sweetness

Of acknowledging how much I love

And long for you

Is an amazing healing

That is freeing

Even if it never results

In us meeting

For I realised something last night

True love can never be destroyed

By any war

Or sabotaging power

And the heart that goes on beating

Cannot refuse to love

The one who we have chosen

As the truest deepest

Container of

Our love’s devotion.
