Love

It isn’t just a matter of reality,
if only it were that simple,
it is boundless and without fact,
a sense of radiant energy
that wraps itself around the heart
while it coexists in the mind,
making the casting away of it
damned near impossible.

No, Cor, hon, you don't cast it aside, for love is what keeps us, just heal the small rift in the heart, for it is only a small part of what you have..gentle smile

I think that this is one of the best poems I've seen written about love in a long time.   Short and packed with something different. I love it, Cor!
