from the deepest thoughts
of the emptied mind
the endless darkness
which now makes us blind
we explore
to our hearts content
this place ...

...all the fear it holds
all the pain we face

Day in, day out
the struggle we survive
where unanswered hopes
still find us alive
still as the night
and endless to the same
one reason only
and Love is its name

truth be told
the strength of Love
shines its light
releasing shadows
that make up this night
a dream of dreams
once thought never to live
now a gift
a life only two can give

under this endless moon's desiring eyes
this dream of dreams
is now
our dreams arise

"In life's giving ... love is a gift, such worth living."

Stirring -- the message of love in this.

  Susan

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

this dream of dreams
is now
our dreams arise
