How Could I Only Love Your Light? Poem by Sandra Kavanagh Josefsson

How could I only love your light?
When there is beauty in your shadows.
You help me to face up to my own darkness,
In these days of the worlds madness.

How could my love for you be conditional?
How can I only love a part of you.
The things you judge about yourself,
I love them all because I see the real you.

How could I forget our connection?
It does not care about the law of the land.
Our souls are pulled to the place they belong.
That is what they demand.

And when I saw you,
my soul sure felt you.
It felt your true essence going back over the seasons.
With this feeling, there is no rhyme or reason.

How could I only love your light?
When there is beauty in your shadows.
You help me to face up to my own darkness,
in these days of the worlds madness.
