Listen carefully
The sound of silence
All within a quiet moment
Voices in your heart
Questions from your younger self
Answers from your future being
Love, of the deepest magnitude
Your life’s path of truth
Triumphs of love won
And the mistakes of love lost
The wanderings that led you astray
And the circumstances that brought you back
Listen carefully
Is it Heavenly sent guidance?
Or our own natural instinct
That pulls us onward through the days
A quest of knowledge
From infancy to elderly
We search the unknowns of life
To understand the security of love
Why we continually need it
And why some fool themselves
Into thinking their better off without it
For only love can keep us on course
On life’s path of truth
