the cause of love

 Eventually you will come to understand that love heals
everything, and love is all there is.—Gary Zukav
 
 
it matters not
     what kind of spot
          you occupy
               under the sky;
                    there is a hope
               for those who grope
          to rise above
     the shadows of
 
their darkest fear.
     can you not hear
          the gentler voice
               behind the noise:
 
 
     come unto me
          and be set free;
               break every chain
                    and rise again.
                         nor black nor white
                    nor pale nor bright
               nor swift nor slow
          nor high nor low
 
     shall count as wise
          before my eyes,
               as long as earth
                    to men gives birth.
 
 
          there is a light
               that seemeth bright,
                    where halt and blind
                         are left behind;
                              no man alone,
                         where seeds are sown,
                    can rise above
              the cause of love
 
          that i have fought;
               my love has bought,
                    at heavy cost,
                         that which was lost.
