What If Love

"What If Love?"
By: Adrielle R. Bollin

What if Love had a voice
What if you were Love's choice
And those eyes they burned for you
With mercy, compassion, justice and truth

What if Love was your defense
Your relief and recompense
What if Love was more than you
Bigger than life, than you ever knew

What if Love was really proud of you
If all your successes made Love smile with you
And all your failures made Love cry with you
What if all Love wanted was to hold and comfort you

What if Love made you stronger
And melted your heart for all sons and daughters
Quenched all your thirst and quelled deepest hunger
Gave you new eyes with which to ponder

What if wisdom was your mother
And loving kindness your brother
What if strength was a constant companion
And peace was your safe place to land in

What if joy was ever dancing in your heart
All because Love has been with you from the start
What if Love laid down His life for you
Even while knowing, Him, you wouldn't choose

What if Love was the best friend you ever had
Or the kind of father you'd be proud to have
What if Love could heal your heart and soul
Make you clean, fill you up and make you whole

What man or woman could fill Love's shoes
Who is limitless and ageless tell me who?
We do not fill Love's shoes, but Love fills ours
We who choose Love have Love's powers

What if Love?
