Love Exists

[Beauty for Ashes 257]

Love Exists

Though she doesn't grace your door

With her wings touching the doorstep

Love Exists

And though she may not knock

With roses in the form of a romantic gesture

I have seen her grace my door

Holding a baby in her arms

Or in the tears of a sad little boy

Love Exists

In the eyes of young lovers

Or the way an old man holds his elderly wife's hand after a lifetime of struggles

Love Exists

The angel may not arrive in linen and lace

She may bear the robes of lonlieness and sacrifice

She may watch how you embrace your destiny

And reward you with treasures you never imagined

You need not watch for her

For she will arrive at any given time

With rose scented air and beloved looks

Love exists, I promise you
