My Love, Unshadowed 



You wake my soul in the morning

You make my heart come a-calling

My pulse quickens so with the scent

Of your Love ... having given vent



For when you call at night

And wake me with a fright ...

My blood races in my veins

I'm aware you're in such pain



And I pray silently under my breath

That God does not yet seek your death

For HE does see you in your torment ...

And knows how hard you have fought your end



... In league with all those who surround ...

Who care so much and so profound

And want you so to be alright ...

They've all joined you in your fight ... 



And now you sense that strength within

From the Love we have all pitched in ... 

And the prayers we've all murmured

To make your heart clutch and turn it

  

Into a fuller life ... so worth fighting for

With new spirit on t'other side of the door

Love ... so much larger than you have ever known 

Without shadows, and never again ... alone ...



- Tristram
