Love Shines

 

Love shines

 

In the darkest corners around the world

Love shines brightly through the frail lands

As a mother cuddles her under nutritious child

Letting her tears bring joy while shelter her pain

Amazing I say, for love, somehow love, found a way

 

In a war torn land a solder lies wounded in a battle

That wasn’t of his doing but is willing to fight for the cause

Not knowing whether he’ll live or die he cries out

A letter of tears addressed to his family.

The compassion of love that I never knew...

 

I see a child lost in a land that says he is less than he is

His mother instills into him, he's more than anyone can see

The boy confused by all the hatred surrounding him

His mother holds him tight and says only loves can shine through

Oh my God, the dam has broke in my eyes and the flood won’t stop

 

For even through the toughest of times and pain

People have grasped the wonderment of that word

The one that surround us, with such passion throughout time

The word that sliver through a tiny crack to give inspiration

Those without hope for they know, life is love and to love is life
