Love never lies;
It's pure clarity
Who claims it does
Has never earned its glow
Perhaps they've planted
Thorns in honesty
And now they reap
The cold their choices sow
If it wounds
It's full of intensity
Like fire that burns
And pulls me in its flow
To those who judge
It leaves but a memory
Of light their hearts
Could never truly show
And if Love's wrath
Consumes my every day
I take it as a gift
Not as torment
They're wounds that heal
The sadness on my way
And turn my pain
Into a sweet lament
Love is a flame that blinds
And still ignites
Compassionate when hearts
Are strong and true
If it's unkind
It's 'cause something it fights
For those who scorn
It taste its bitter hue
But I, who suffer
And embrace its heat
Carry its trials like praises
Bittersweet
For pain itself can be poetic art
A gift the world receives
From Love's pure heart
And if Love's wrath
Consumes my every day
I take it as a gift
Not as torment
They're wounds that heal
The sadness on my way
And turn my pain
Into a sweet lamente
And if Love's wrath
Consumes my every day
I take it as a gift
Not as torment
They're wounds that heal
The sadness on my way
And turn my pain
Into a sweet lament
I'd trade a thousand worlds
For Love's torment
For in its fire, life burns
With bright delight
Among its trials
I find my nourishment
To love is feeling
Even through the night
And if Love's wrath
Consumes my every day
I take it as a gift
Not as torment
They're wounds that heal
The sadness on my way
And turn my pain
Into a sweet lament
Oh, Love, my thorn
And my celestial skies
Within my heart
Your path forever lies
