Love is looking for you
She’s peering behind the blinds you drew
against her radiant glare,
Bumping up against blossoms shuttered from her smile
Rustling among the remnants
of disappointment and regret
Everyone in the garden is beloved.
Love is waiting for you
A golden chalice engraved with your name
rests upon the table,
While you sleep, she offers you
a drop of nectar ambrosial
Her patience has no bounds
She will not leave until you let her in.
Love is calling you
She is so very close
Her whisperings all but lost
amid the clanging din
Have you shut out her voice,
closed your ears to the music?
She never tires of speaking your name.
Love is looking for you
Wants you to look back square in her face,
Unblinkingly reveal the recesses of your heart
Gaze upon the simple beauty therein
Accept with grace the invitation as issued.
(and all this time,
you thought you were looking for her)
l’Amour te cherche
l’Amour t’attend
l’Amour t’appelle
