Where Is Love?

Where is Love?

If I had my way I would keep
you tucked away
where only I could
be your lover
where only I
could be
your friend

I'd keep
you happy
building
private dreams,
inside our
private world.

Stillness in the dark
drops into a room
where I am alone
to picture, your face,
taste life

You can remove
dampness from morning,
loneliness from day –
everything you give me,
I need
everything I need,
I need with you

all we share - dreams,
laughter – we have
cried tears of joy, and
sadness –
celebrate love
as one

without you what is life?
and when did it begin?
and why must it end -
