Deepest Ocean

a human heart
beats in then out
love flows there
beyond all doubt
how we love
is not by will
we cannot choose it
yet it chooses us still
the tides returns
just as it leaves
love is complete
when another receives
the heart is the
deepest ocean by far
and loving reveals
who we truly are


"Pour yourself thick, when it is you, that you spread."

Thank you for this inspired wisdom!

deepest ocean by far
and loving reveals

Yes!

And to love is always to give. Receiving love is completing a love transaction for the giver. And to receive love is a special kind of giving. To receive love makes it complete. And both must be freely given, without demands or promises or bondage results, destroying the love that was given.
