Only Hearts Can

You can't fully describe the feeling
The lump inside your throat 
The aching of the heart
The yearning of the soul
Breaking all confidence
Though healthy you feel sick 
Giving up what is held dear
Feeling like you are in a free fall
Every thought to share
Every burden to bear 
Hopes on one thing 
Songs have one meaning
Life out of control
Restless nights 
Dreams you can't explain
Subject to foolishness
Others will ridicule
This is not all 
But thank God above 
This feeling can only be
Toward a certain other
If we truly loved our neighbors
No one could bear it. 
However, 
When it is received with joy
From the deepest descent
There forms an estacy 
It transcends every obstacle 
Fulfills every hope
Exceeds any dream
Makes everything right
The soul is at rest
Life's burdens become light
There is no embarrassment 
Feet on solid ground 
Expectations soar
The world cannot bear it 
Only hearts can can contain love
