New Love

 

soundtrack

New Love

New love

 Comes as the dawn on a new day

Out of darkness, dreaming

Itself into being

Singing unwritten songs,

Dancing on feet, lonely 

And tired of not dancing.

New love 

Whispers 

While shouting

Delights, while fighting doubt

And holds on tightly

While feigning an attitude

 Of laissez-faire.

New love

Is sweet 

Like peaches

On a July afternoon,

Bittersweet, perhaps

If left too long,

If taken too soon.

New love

Comes with a fragrance

 All it's own

Perfume called desire,

Intoxicative danger  

The taste of temptation,

And fear of the unknown.

But..........

 No man

Can renounce it

Nor woman, resist

The thrill of it's mystery,

It's romance,

It's bliss.

'Tis all of these things

New love is......

And more

For love

Is the ocean

And the heart

 Is it's shore.

What Is It?

What is It?

If love is not love

Then what is it?

How can it exist

If it's not real?

If love is not there

How do you feel it?

And what is a love

That you can't feel?

What is wanting

If you don't want it?

And needing something

That you don't need?

Why is the thing you don't need

So all powerful?

And how does it grow

If you don't plant the seed?

How does the heart decide who it loves?

Does the mind then, not play a part?

All the thoughts in the brain cannot conceive

The emotions that live in the heart.

The heart is an entity all  of its own

No one can control it by will

Your mind can demand and command it

But the heart hears and goes it's way, still.

I do not want to love you

I had made no plans, you see

I didn't count on you entwining yourself

Till you became a part of me.

I didn't want to want you 

I didn't need the pain

I had hurt so much from love's cruel touch

And I didn't want to hurt again.

I really tried to run away

When that feeling did approach

I resisted everything I saw in you

That my heart drew to me the most.

But the heart became my master

And my mind just sighed and left

For it knew that soon my heart would break

And that I'd find myself, bereft.

And so I am and so it did

And love's wounds have cut me deep

As my heart reached out to hold onto

Precious things it could not keep.

You tell me love cannot be real 

In this place and space and time

Because your own heart does not feel

The love I feel with mine.

And though that might be true for you

That doesn't make it so

Not thinking, I reached my hands to love

And with the same hands, must let it go.

If this love is not love

Then what is it?

How can it exist

If it's not real?

If my love for you

Is not something that's true

Then tell me 

What is this heartbreak I feel?

You can't tell me my mind has imagined

When my mind warned me not to partake

The mind only has one thing in common

With the heart and that's both of them break.

But only love can break a heart

That thing God gave to man

And only He knows the secret to how

Love can heal that heart again.
