(NB: No rhymes!)
There are some truths
that you should know
by now
Night is not
a new day
Summer is not
a century
And time?
It feeds us
to ourselves
But these conditions
are temporary
only love is persistent
It fills my lungs
with immutable words
with popular songs
And joy
insatiable
indomitable
joy
Aha! I knew there was more in you. This is simple, beautiful and deep.

This is one of the most absorbing pieces i've read for a while. It cheers me, as sometimes I struggle with the constraints of rhymes, although i enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteI unashamedly love that thing that is love.
Without it we do not live, we exist.
Thankyou
