Analysis of Your love holds my soul together



If I could jar each raindrop and send it home to glaciers bossom strong and bold
To restore what footprints I have dug and torn
And made the earth and lives forlorn.
Or ate not of forests felled by hand of man
for crops too ordered to hold the land.
And driven no spear into loves pure brand that moves and breaths on a Gods gentle command.
Not whispered cold thought into the world when energies weak and evil returned.
Had I not wasted each gifted daydream that could have balanced what life should mean.
If only life force felt as one could be shared beyond this disintegration and body to restore, to heal and make amends beyond collectives into friends.
If only the scales could render pure the light of hope i know reassures vibrating gentle timeless flight of love magnified by a Gods insight.
Replacing hate dismay or doubt with feeling undescribed but in our sights.
If we only knew what it has meant to put down the blade and feel what can be felt.
For just one moment suspended in mind is critical for every life.
