Love Mystery

Love is a mystery so it is of God,
true love's a gift from God and thus is given,
as mystery, love's still normal, not so odd,
as gift, love's natural and other-driven.
God does not take, so mostly love's not taken,
love's not just for a part, but for us whole,
love does not leave and leave loved one forsaken,
love leaves a heart and leaves behind a soul.
Eternal God does not just come and go,
true love's from God and so will last the same,
true love must be for real, not just for show,
love cannot go by any other name.
Though mystery, God tells us enough of love,
that love’s from God so must end up above.
