Analysis of I Believe In Love



By Nancy Rodriquez

Some in your group would call me foolish,
for holding this dream inside of my heart,
as I compare the past bliss,
and I manage to keep from falling apart,
Sometimes those memories are like a flood,
and I can feel every connected emotion,
I believe in love,
with dedicated devotion,
will somehow be resurrected in this life,
no matter how you may fight its hold,
My destiny is in becoming your wife,
and though this dream has become cold,
You have thoughts of our memories too,
even though you try to put them out of your mind,
they are imaged on the inside of your heart,
I know you still believe in our love, you'll find.
