Veiled Love

Love is a most enduring emotion

Veiled Love


A wisp of light along the way
Warms the path to yesterday
As I remember you so gay
In the night before the day.

Your eyes, like embers all aglow
Kindled a flame that did bestow
A searing brand to let me know
How your love began to grow.

A love not to be denied
By one who, I must confide,
Is entrapped by its undertide
As it strives to be satisfied.

What pathway must it take
Before time begins to wake
A heart that must partake
In a song it can't forsake.

Is it love so uncontrolled
That it spurns the seer who foretold,
"Such love cannot, so overbold,
Be as it seems, not to unfold.
