The First Of Forever-Howard Keith West
Sacrifice Has No Time Limit In Love
Sacrifice has no time limit within the constraints of true real love
Because you can't properly love without the actions of your sacrifices
Can't give real love without the total voluntary giving of yourself
Just like you can't have heat without hot
As a volcano erupting without a red hot lava flow
A mountain avalanche without the component of the snow
Sacrifice and love goes hand in hand
Just like your breathe fogging up a mirror and you being found alive
A heart beating strongly and blood coursing through your body
Can't fool me by talking about love and not being willing to give of yourself
To be unwilling to cancel a debt of hatred and un-forgiveness
Not willing to give good gifts to the self centered and greedy
Matching short coming to short comings and matching failure to failures
Always seeing the bad and never acknowledging the presence of the good
Wrecking the peace of civilization with the war cry's of educated sophisticated salvages
Sacrifice is attached to love at the hips and the two can never be separated
Sacrifice is just like God and Love coexisting together for the rest of eternity
You can't have one without the other just like two sets of lips and a warm inviting kiss
