LOVE – A PARADOX
To be loved or to be in love
A paradox in the present continuum
A feeling so empty, yet so wholesome
The beauty of its pain like the sun in its morning glory
A joy so intense like the fire in all its raging fury
A smile from the universe -
Beckoning the rise of my inner spirit
Awakening me from a deep slumber to live life in its true merit
I smile back with understanding
Embracing this emotion in its entirety
As it is the natural progression of my spirituality
Kneeling down with humility
I laugh at life and its duality
I look ahead with grace
For my heart and soul are at peace
Marching forward with fearlessness
I leave behind the hopelessness.
