Love is Love

The stained glass windows 

They aren't the same

Without you

Their sparkle

Is dull

Your picture in the walkway 

Stripped 

As though you never meant anything

But you spirit remains 

In me

In my eyes

In my smile and soul 

I often wonder

Why God placed you in my life

For loving someone 

You can never have

Is a cruel and unusual punishment 

The wind is growing colder

The eyes of the church 

Growing curious

And I miss you 

With every passing day

Every tick of the clock 

I remember you looking at me in awe

Remarking that I was genuine 

That I was an inspiration 

That you loved me 

I remember our laughing 

and our nervous energy 

When we hugged 

And I didn't let go 

It all began in February

And ended in June

But our dreams remain 

and you still cheer me on 

I the heartbroken girl 

Will love you 

from afar

forever 

After all 

Love

is love 

There shall be no rules left

at all
