I AM LOVE...

I have no mouth but I speak in many ways I have no eyes but I see everything I have no legs but I walk many paths I have no ears but I listen to every clamouring I got no hands but I've carried inevitable burdens and brought about rest I have no shelter but I make homes for all and sundry You can tell I'm a human I live amongst men, children and the likes All have heard of me Everyone speaks of me Only few have seen and known my ways I'm easily seen, my naked self Not in my shameful state I got no shame to cover I am All in All with no shame I am shamed By Those who tell lies with my name Who have made my skin hurt With there deceits When in their tongues I am bitter I am shamed By hypocrites and pretenders Who have used my name for gain When truly I'm never a meaning in there hearts I am shamed By those who spit and throw dust At my face that I see not their wrongs They have hurt my feelings deeply They have deceived me to believe That I could trust them They killed me along the paths Of their motives I'm guilty of all charges they claim They hanged me so others could see the shame that I never had They abandoned me so people Could look away with scorn I've not got pity from the faces I looked up to with hope Disappointment has been dashed to my face Those who know about me Those getting to hear my name for the first time Have taken to discord I've been portrayed in their minds and that of others as lifeless I've been shown to them as a broken mirror that cannot have its exact face back from pieces of its scattering I'm neither their enemy nor a trusted friend I'm of course the opposite of their intentions which of course I'm not Who would tell them I'm all they ever need still? If ever I were blind I wouldn't see to say I'm utmost Nations have scattered without me Families broken without me Friendships lost without me Brothers and sisters at war without me Kiths and kins have lost it in war of words without me Toddlers aren't left out If only they could see I'm ever with them no matter how I've been used, dejected and trodden upon They, of course will know I'm all they need Unity is lost Trust is missing Believe is hidden Hope is found wanting Connection broken Many are sickened Many are dead and some are still going to... All for the sake of me Not me but for the sake That I've been forsaken I want to help but how do I? If all can trace the meaning of my being If all can see with my eyes The universe of my thoughts On how great I want all as one If all can sing the song of my heart With the rhythm of oneness I want for all If all can speak as I do now and then With confessions of sticking as one always and forever If all can walk many paths That I have and will... If all can listen to every clamouring Without disheartening If all through thick and thin regard me as a way out of many If in all like I hold no grudges Like I'm not unforgiving Forgiveness can be expressed out of nothing and forgotten no matter the ills like sins blotted out for our Salvations I'm not boastful so they shouldn't... I'm without pride so they shouldn't... I'm without bitterness so they shouldn't... I'm not jealous or envious No greed in me I got no spots or wrinkles That signifies my shame Look upon me with your eyes of humility, I'm humble I'm patient in all my doings Though soft but impossible to break In me is peace you require In me is trust that is eternal In me is the joy you dearly yearn for I'm unconditional in my ways Immortal amongst mortals Liberty is my footstool Goodness my legacy Togetherness my fingerprints I want be home to you far and near Your guide home and abroad I want to have you to myself But you can never have me And be vulnerable though expect vulnerability You will be tried And tested for my sake Mocked and chastised With me is endurance With me is crooked paths That will smoothen as we go With me is dashed hopes That will heal as we embark With me are tears not seen Becoming the glitter of smiles as we walk You can tell there's going to be a rough journey as we set In your trust and lack of doubts Is the perfect bliss you seek as we set I am love and known like me
