The Light Of My Love Poem by Portia Burton

I Never chose whom I would love,
Never planned whom I wanted to share;
Following what my heart said to me
I've come to you even if you don't care.

Never thought to love you, oh, so much,
Nor to be obsessed so much with you,
Never thought that Listening to my heart
would make me so much weak for you.

Oh, Come now, my love, and take my hands,
Cherish me with your loving heart,
Don't ask me anything, just understand
Why I can't remain from you apart.

If one day you come but I am not there,
Please look askance at the sky above,
There you will see in that azure blue
The stars shining with the light of my love.
