"Loveless rumble" (poem)

LOVELESS RUMBLE

They keep telling me

this is blasphemy

I worshiped our Love

‘twas the world to me

God is ‘bout Love

isn’t Love God’s way?

When Love takes her leave

God just cannot stay

Do they really think

that His Holiness

could help me to deal

with this emptiness?

They probably mean well

I know that much

But all words but fail

when we need a touch

Would Heavens deny me

its perpetual bliss

If my Sun were to rise

and set in a kiss?

Would I burn in hell

for seeing God’s face

in the pupils of lovers

when they embrace?

Would I be a sinner

praying in vain

If I craved Love’s taste

God’s sweet Grace

again?

Live for the Love of it,

The Happy Amateur
