‘I love him – that’s why we’re together…’
‘I love her too – but sometimes
we drive each other up the wall…’
If your past, mate, were her past –
this person that you ofttimes love;
if her pain – which she does not
herself understand, yet feels;
(and always at the wrong time for you..):
if her self-awareness – sometimes
so sharp and so perceptive –
matched at every moment
your fluctuating, sometime
equally sharp, perceptive, own –
then, you would think and act
exactly as she does…
ah, there’s forgiveness;
there’s compassion; and there’s peace;
and then, there’s only - love;
there’s only love.
Love is always now;
and then, there’s only love.
