SHIELD OF LOVE

I spread white rushes
for you to walk upon
I lay a groundwork, a foundation
prepare the way
but, its you, be it with caution
even hesitancy
who must take the first step
then, step-by-step
Vibrant hearts create
a Shield of Love
a safe haven, Heaven on Earth

THE LOOK

I saw the look
again
caught it in your eye
just a flash
a moment gone by
but...
you can't hide
what's in your soul
you can't deny
that over which you have no control
when you are loved by someone
deep and true
when your souls connect, merge
its really not up to you
anyway
I love you
beyond all time, beyond all rules
I love you
because I've seen your soul
looking out at me
when it gathered itself
in your eyes
