Hallelujah!

Could we spare the hearts
       from the heartache
              of parting and tears? —
By not falling
       in love:
              no longer… not now —
                     nor ever?...
By confining
       ourselves
              to the life of hard work
                     and routine?...
No way! This is not
       what the Maker had wanted
              for us to endeavour!
He created this world
       and all flesh
              to experience
                     love,
To perceive that we only then
       live our lives
              to the fullest
When the sun of the morning
       casts down a beam
              of soft light,
And we wake,
       seeing someone we love
              unreservedly and truly!
If you are all alone,
       you didn’t meet
              your soulmate —
Try to work out why —
       find the reason
              and look for the cure,
Ask the Maker
       for blessing of love —
              ask, and patiently wait!
And the first streak of dawn
       will dispel dead of night…
              Hallelujah!
