LOVE AWAKEN Copyright 1999
by
Robert Greger
Awaken my love from your sweetest sleep,
Dream not the dream of a thousand dreamers.
Open your eyes and arise from the deep,
Free your own heart from the chains of demeanor:
Love is not love when in a dream possessed,
Neither is love love when only a thought,
Or expression of beauty unconfessed,
Nor a fruitless desire to be wrought.
No, love breathes life into the fearful heart,
And searches the depths of the soul entombed.
All doubt is cast out and your fears do part,
It conquers despair, resurrects the doomed.
Awaken my love and let love abound,
Or forever be chained, forever be bound.
