LOVE'S QUARREL

Is the goal here to sustain a note


Or have a float down the water moving 

and wailing with the waves

Is it the same to live and love and have it all, alone?


If there is nothing, how can you share with someone


Or if there is everything- to the degree that everything is for us- 

Do we know, we know what sharing is?


The face of love seems to have a way 

of disappearing in a moment


But is it us- appearing in the face of its disappearance…


The other side majestically appears


Revealing that part that needs revealing


But are we ugly when we glare at our mirrors


Having a war, oh so intensely with a warlike figure


That love


That, we thought love


Is it all? all just something we can’t grasp but in our struggle


To hold it all together


Hoping for piece


Hoping for love


Hoping for that "savior", that person


To release us into that person we want to love…


That person- Me 

Comes.
