What Love is Lost?

What Love is Lost

What love is lost that’s found a home

In two hearts that have loved with all

What love is not that has lost its way

Yet lives beyond sensibility’s call

What love is waste though hearts be broken

If true love is its path

What love is gone that yet lives on

In the hearts that it calls home

Love is not gone if the doors are shut

Love is not lost if yet it lives

Love was not for naught if it burns within

Though not chosen, yet it still gives

Give ear to your heart when you lie this night

Give voice to love which yet lives

Give way to the doors which burn to open

Kiss tenderly and feel what love gives

You may close your eyes to love dear lover

Yet love will call you by name

Love stands to await the truth that it is

Where forever love lives and will reign
