for the sake of Love

for the sake of Love

this day i breathe a thousand breaths

or perhaps ten thousand more

i take and let in reverence

as i pass through thy love’s door

love is why i am i said

as i seek divine embrace

i breath this breath that i may live

to look upon love’s face

where ever i peer i glimpse of her

and hear her mystical song

i follow her scent to draw e’en close

and touch that which i long

just to her holy garment

that i may shed life’s mask

a noble deed indeed i say

to undertake this task

let love rule my perditions

let my Soul suffer to remember

that i am but a servant of love

and i willingly doth surrender

for

this day i breathe a thousand breaths

or perhaps ten thousand more

i take and let in reverence

as i pass through thy love’s door

for the sake of Love
