I now reside within my soul, br And every soul, it seems - br How else to manifest this love br For every living thing? br br Though often times rejected br And neglected - still it grows - br It weeps for every broken heart br And every tear that flows; br br It forges deep connections br To each lover and each friend - br A bond that's rarely broken br Even though the feelings end; br br Love is not an easy thing br And often it's one-sided - br And though it's pure and honest br There are times when it's misguided; br br The object of affection's glow br May not return the shining - br Still the tapestry's been strung br And love knows no declining; br br Although given, never wasted, br Once released it knows no end, br Love's a powerful emotion - br Curse or blessing? br br It's a blend.
