Worlds of Love

Poem Artwork

 A welding together of 
hearts, souls and mind

Two shine together
with no grief behind 
eachother, no need
for quarrel, no need
for greed
just love to feed

If I have been vague

Mea culpa 

Amor vincit omnia 

 

Worlds of love I have woven 

by words of love

Inscribed in glowing 

letters,

a trail of bread crumbs

left for you

Sometimes brazen

sometimes code

always in hope 

of reaching your nodes 

 

Love

into and beyond

past the horizon 

under the stars 

above and 

into forever

out of space 

beyond never

 

But what of you?

 

I am a flower

as such in constant 

decay

My petals will fall

My vine shrivel 

I will turn dull

and grey

 

Will your love be eternal 

or will it be external?

Where is my reassurance

in caritate perpetua 

mi amor aeternus?

 

A leap of faith 

over heaps of

innuendos 

I will spread

my mind 

let go of the edge

and let myself

fall

 

I only ask this of you

 

Understand love

is vaste and 

surpass need 

Its not to be slave 

under the greed 

of one

I think this poem covers a lot. The main point is love must be shared. Very nice Elisabeth
