The Fear Of Love

Your love flowed gently over me, Like a wave caressing the shore, Touching me... then covering me... Leaving me begging for more Your love, a magical potion, Cleansing the wounds in my heart, An elixir straight from heaven That invited the healing to start Your love, the fire I always dreamed Would warm my winter night, My sun... appearing in the rain, To my darkness, bringing the light Your love, a melody divine, Love's symphony played anew, My heart arranged each tender note.... The song that I heard was you Your love, a perfectly sculpted rose An angel laid at my feet, Dare I press it to my heart.... Will the perfume still be sweet? Your love... I wonder, will it endure.... How long can a dream survive? Why do doubt and fear interpose... Waiting for despair to arrive? Your love, a wreath that heaven wove And placed upon my head, Yet, I'm gripped by fear this chain of love Is no more than a slender thread
