Love Goes Beyond Reason Poem by Paul Reed

Love goes beyond reason
Enters no rational argument,
Love transcends the seasons
Does not know abandonment;

Love crosses all borders
It knows no edge or side,
Love does not obey orders
Is not carried by the tide;

Love is inextinguishable
It heals the angry sore,
With love all is accomplishable
Supersedes all that went before;

Love is not afraid to speak
Or hear it’s message spoken,
Love makes strong the weak
Mends the heart that has been broken;

With love all is achievable
Nothing that cannot be attained,
Nothing given away irretrievable
Nothing lost that cannot be regained;

Without love, life cannot be tasted
No light can shine the way ahead
Without love we are wasted
Without love we are dead.
