There is a love, if love it is

There is a love, if love it is

Which contradicts my thoughts

That trips me up, repeatedly


That love should distort

Or distract our imaginations

To gift pain intertwined with pleasure


Yes; over seas, over mountains

Feelings leap and bound

Taking all, or taking nothing


Yet I will wait, and wait

For such joy is for conquering

Such hope is unforgettable


There is love, if love it is

Which catches us out

Hits us, straight on and sideways
