Let There Be Love

KarenX 1958 (Los Angeles, CA)



I have but one wish: Let There Be Love!
Bathe my soul in colors of love
Deep within the heartspace,
Where God lives
Where Love begins
Where Love remains
Where the colors await their soulmate
Bath my soul in the colors of love

The yellow glow of love's warmth
The orange beat of love's intensity
The red brilliance of love's passion
The purple radiance of love's joy
The blue depths of love's peace
The green aura of love's patience
The white shadow of love's pain
The black light of love's dawning

Deep within the heartspace
Where God Lives
Where love begins
Where love remains
Where the colors await their soulmate

I have but one wish: Let there be Love!
Fill of souls with the colors
of the rainbow.
