If All Of Your Love Were From My Heart Ripped (Refrain Stanza) Poem by Gert Strydom

(for Annelize)

If the world were of all flowers and trees stripped,
if all of your love were from my heart ripped
how gloomy and dull and lonely the world would be
as in it there would be no place of tranquillity for me
and to face future I would be totally unequipped
but here we both are with one another in love
where I do believe it's a blessing from God above
and even my humanity would be from me nipped
if all of your love were from my heart ripped
