Deeper Is Love



Love does not depart,
but the heart alone builds a wall,
giving in to darkness
as if darkness reigned
or evil held the reins.

This is but a lie,
heed it not nor buy,
catch the vision -- heaven's call,
let winged faith release your soul,
Truth is standing-- royal Guard,
and no chasm is deep enough,
that not deeper still, is Love.
