Majesty Of Life

The pain of loss ebbs, a receding tide The stream of life still flows A gentle moment recalled, hope wonders Should I love again? Faith is reverent majesty Written through the quill of suffering It becomes... The mystery of life Is it truth? Life requiring majesty yet- Majesty the author of suffering Or... The wisdom of our existence? Seeing only suffering Fearing to embrace love Is the folly of the lost Love is not complete Unless- Suffering has instructed our hearts Choosing to love, not in fear of suffering Is the garland of majesty The crown of life It is enhanced wisdom Loving through suffering in place of having not loved at all is... Majesty in the course of life
