See the Truth

  • I should be publishing a book of poetry soon.

See the Truth

Love is unpredictable,

Uncontrollable,

And undeniable.

But more importantly...

Love unconditional.

It should be given freely,

And whole heartedly.

Without thought or care or backward glance.

You cannot ignore it or fight it.

You cant even pretend it doesn't exist,

Because love simply is.

You have no say about when it will occur

Or where it will happen.

You don't even have a choice on the condition you will be in when it happens,

Or with whom it will happen with.

The only facts you can know are these.

Once love has chosen you,

Once it has wrapped itself around you,

There is nothing you can do to change it.

It becomes sight, smell, and taste.

It is the air in your lungs

And the very beat of your heart.

It becomes your life.

It is the reason your world turns.

And it will fill the very depths of your soul.

this is a very deep poem.. I like the way it has the broken flow but still goes together. That is hard to do.

OMG, while reading that, one person I know of came to mind. That was a very good description, but with the position that I have chosen to take, it kind of hurt me....

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
