A Love That None Suspected
By: Leif Gregersen
My friends if you are weary
If life has been hard on you
Think upon the words I will be sharing
And let your heart be born anew
Let just a little love inside you
Allow the seed to grow
Love can fill every moment with joy
In ways you can never know
Love is like the rainbow
Bringing hope after the rain
But if you do not nurture it
It will leave you in nothing but pain
I once had a lover in my youth
Who meant the world to me
And then as though I hated myself
I pushed her away and set her free
My heart was broken for some time
I thought I could never love again
But someone came to fill the void
And I romanced her with my pen
I wrote her poems and letters
Tried to show my, caring side for her to see
But that time of love was no better
She saw to the broken core of me
And then after a lifetime of waiting
I found a love that would never go away
To my sister a lovely child was born
On a perfect sunny summer day
I loved this child fully from the beginning
How she smiled and played and laughed
She made me gather together all my bad feelings
And force them to slip into the past
Now love to me is her sneaky grin
Love is in her sweet and giving ways
And she has redeemed our broken family
Given all of us precious, happy days
