Love Can

Can love be as pure?
a miraculous cure
for days when death seems premature
and your arms impossibly secure.

Can love defy time?
for I seem to be thy
long before I could open my eye
and was sung back to slumber on your thigh.

Can love be truly returned?
when heaven descends and hell be burned
Nothing to be earned
yet deeply yearned.

Can love last lifetimes?
freely captive in cozy confines
when all we know
are etheral moments of bliss undefined.

Can love become home?
in a cold room or sunny streets of Rome
Is it a place, a person
or when a soul is no more alone?

Thankyou papa, for being the answer to all my questions :)
Love you and a very happy birthday to you!
