I am Love … Spoken Word by J. Jondhi Harrell

If love could take human form and speak to us…this is what it would say……

Give your heart into my hand/for I am more than mortal man……. for I am love

I am the hope in a couple’s heart when the promises are over and the living starts I’m a little boy guarding his sister home from school I am family friendship/discipline & rules

I am a father who labors day to day to instill in his children a sense of a better way I am the tear in a mother’s eye when the coffin is lowered and she says goodbye

I am kindness & consolation/ tenderness & consideration /I am truth & communication

For I am love

I’m the source of your strength when you have to be strong/ I am forgiveness when you have done wrong/I am endurance when you’ve suffered so long I am light, I am life I am evening’s sweet song…..for I am love

I cannot be trapped or caught…….but I can be learned or taught

I cannot be sold or bought……..but I can be found if sought

I am the softness of a woman’s touch…a simple smile that means so much I’m the joy that shines from the eyes of a child

I’m the sound of passion raw & wild I can cause you pain & leave you in humiliation fill you with anger or immerse you in degradation I can steal your pride make you surrender all dignity I can leave you shattered broken down on your knees

I’m the jagged edges of the pain that tears your soul/ I’m the healing warmth that restores and makes you whole/ I am joy and sorrow laughter and tears fantasies & broken promises/ youthful dreams & wasted years

I’m the distant blur in a lonely stare I’m the catch in your voice when you raise it in prayer

I am the whisper of songz from your past the answer to questions that you’ve never asked

I walk in the memories of an old man close to death/ you can hear my heartbeat in a baby’s first breath give your heart into my hand for I am far more than mortal man
