Element of Amour

 03 November 2006

 

Another day of love,

another day without you.

This shadow in the shade,

a darkness captured inside.

 

For where was unity,

when separation was denial.

This element of love,

the love you have to give.

 

Because nobody could give that love,

it needed to be mutual in being.

One world, an empty place,

because no one lived to share.

 

Those trees and branches,

was there ever a summers day to rejoice.

The one of you and I, that day we would walk.

Two people next to another, no poison,

just a moment and time to examine our love.

 

 

"Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under

the elements of the world: But now, after that ye have known God,

or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and

beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?"

Galatians 4: 3, 9 KJV
