I LEANED ON LOVE

I leaned on matter
and was pierced.
I leaned on Love,
and I was healed.

I leaned on person
and learned sorrow.
I leaned on Love,
and joy uplifted me.

I leaned on wealth
and was unsatisfied.
I leaned on Love,
and lack was left outside.

So much is clear:
I cannot fear,
For I have leaned on Love.
