By those who love with care
To understand its power
Requires hearts laid bare.
Not one of all the romantics
Who wrote of love so true
Can tell the feeling's essence
So clear of love like you.
As you embraced - departing -
From my trembling, aching heart
The depths of love revealed themselves
Bursting, passionate and stark.
Love is not a fleeting feeling
But a flame that burns inside
It's the bittersweet of living
With open hearts that can't hide.
For love is felt the deepest
By those who dare to give
And in its sweet surrender
We find a reason to live.
