As It Leads Us

The earth revolves around the sun
and we revolve around love.
It is our heaven when we find it
and our tormentor when we do not.
We traverse great distances
to seek it here and there.
It is a thing we cannot see
nor touch it with our hands.
Only in our hearts do we feel it,
and our hearts knows where it stands.
We are blinded by it
as it leads us on our way
across many, many lands.
