To those who would say
this love is not
(in your mind)
a love divine,
what measurement did you use
to fathom the heart--
either of God's,
or mine?
For I would go
on bended knee to the one I love,
but for you
I would not crawl.
And I would give my life
to the one I love
and care nothing for your words
at all.
If I would fight with angels,
what might I fear from the words
of men?
If I would lose the world for my love--
what of love could you say then?
My love more visible in deeds
than in the salty tears of spite
of those who claim that love is not right
denying the basic needs
of those to love and be loved.
We are enough for that,
and survive the risks--
those that limit love must learn-
the limit does not exist.
