O LOVE! I LOVE YOU FOR LOVE’S SAKE


O LOVE! I LOVE YOU FOR LOVE’S SAKE

Let me tell you, o my dear, sweet ‘Love’:
I love you for nothing but Love’s sake.
Nothing to fear about and nothing to freak.
Betrayed! You can desert me, my Dove.

Only a source of inspiration you are.
No entry for apprehension, my pretty dear
Neither a stain nor a stigma will you incur;
For Love’s sake I love you and will forever……

Yes, 'A burning child dreads the fire.':
Know this you very well, I and all
But, Love is past inflammation. Mire
Maligns, buffets and brings a nasty ‘Fall’.

A ‘Balm’ is my love; cool and and healing
Lo! It reigns in your heart, pulse and feeling.
