Love Is Nature’s Second Sun

Without such love there’d be no sun,
That keeps you warm when the day is done.
Love that burns so bright and true,
Even after the day is through.
It’s a warm and strong and full of desire,
It keeps you warm when there is no fire.
It makes you weak in its heat,
Set on fire underneath the sheets.
Without such love there’d be no sun,
That keeps you warm when the day done.
