Love Is Never Easy

Folder: 
Love

Love is never easy, but

It turns life into song.

There is no bit of circumstance

That love cannot transform.

There is no weary moment

Of anger or despair

That love cannot convert to grace

And render whole and fair.



How passionate the paradise

That comes from knowing well

That someone in your happiness

Finds pleasure for himself.



How sweet the gift of giving to

Someone who gives to you,

A selflessness that gives to self

More self than self is due.



With all the searing madness of

The world from day to day,

And all the dreary sadness that

No joy can take away,



There is one truth more beautiful

Than anyone can bear:

That two can trust that when they turn

They'll find the other there.
