What are the colors of joy, or of tears?
When are the colors too luminous, if ever?
And if they dim, your soul’s light fades,
Into what feels like ever lasting darkness

But if you keep your heart open to the light of Love
You will always find it’s brilliance
Within the innocence of a child’s eyes,
Or in the purity of an infant’s smile,
Within family, or a true friend…

The colors may seem to dissipate,
But they always exist
The hues of tenderness may seem shadowed,
But it’s only your spirit that has forgotten…

Through passion and pain, laughter and tears,
Lie many shades of Love.
Don’t look with your eyes,
Feel it from within
You’ll know where to look, if your heart leads the way
The solution exists, often right before you
Contentment is near, take the time to embrace it
And love is never further than a breath,
A voice,
A sound,
Look from Within…and it will find You!
