Analysis of Love’s Poetic Dance
I’m feeling
In a somber mood tonight
Just contemplating thoughts
In the dim shadows of light
Thoughts that race around
In circles inside my head
Until the early morning hours
While lying awake in bed
Questions of what to do
And answers of why
Decisions that hold their ground
Without drifting off to the sky
I’m a simple man
Or so I thought
Till one day I realized
Of that I’m not
Of all the complexities
Inside the human heart
Love is the most needed
From the very start
If I live to be
One hundred years old
What good have I done
If my love has gone cold
I once was told I didn’t know
The meaning of love
By a heart that was so cold
And now love’s meaning I know of
For love is in your spirit
Every night and day
In how you live your life
A bright cheerful way
For love of family
And love of romance
Blessed you are when you see
Love’s poetic dance
