They Made Me Love You Poem by Patti Masterman

They made me love you
When they tore you apart
For now I imagine
That grief-stricken heart

Your name's now my altar
Your face is my sun
With words from your mouth
A new world's begun

Your eyes are a love-spell
First light at the dawn
And love is the answer
We know can't be wrong

When god chooses two
To set them together
He first puts away
All inclement weather

He softens hard hearts
And makes strong the weak
The fool is brought down
To equal the meek

Our blood will now mingle
In much brighter days
For it breathes with the secrets
We're waiting to say.
