Love remains

I’m trying to numb the intensity of this prayer didn’t make it to kneeling cuz I doubt I believe in this pasts experiences never equip me for this love was meant to be kind not bruising so anger replaced sanity as I denied its existence in me then hate became an ultimatum to my soul Love has not let me down A person did We had different ideas of love got confused somewhere in-between How can you ask me to go back to that cold place alone Where self is denied cuz pain occupies He loved me only to hate me I don’t know how to justify it Cuz is in the doing not in the things you say So resentment of them became a state of mind Jumping to conclusions cuz I anticipated a lie Father love did not fit no where Show me a map where renegades Authorize a path for the wounded soldiers of love, the helpless, the broken and those letting go Cuz love still remains kind and unchanging Love still protects and unhurting Love still remains love BRING ME BACK AT LOVE’S DOOR I’ll form a fist so tight for the sake of my healing I’ll knock till my knuckles bleed come out love I’m knocking , I’m kneeling, I’m prepared to believe in you ,existing Now that I found my revelation that love still remains kind and unchanging Love still protects and unhurting Love still remains love cuz I believe that love did not let me down only a person did.
