The Paradox of Love
I turn with the seasons
And return with the tide
As love rhymes its reasons
The heart cannot explain
In riddles solved inside
To reveal what is real
Like a spark in the dark
Where what is not has tried
And failed to understand
The paradox of love
You ripen with the grain
As dusk turns into dawn
April turns September
And you leave to remain
Where coming you have gone
I fall to rise again
As I have come to go
Beyond thinking to feel
Beyond feeling to know
As below so above
How love is the wheel and
Love is what turns the wheel
As both effect and cause
As what is and what does
As why what does and how
As above so below
As going you have come
As coming you become
And turning you return
From having turned away
As returning you learn
Or as I remember
Passed along hand to hand
When skin responds to skin
As a spark to a spark
And we begin to see
The paradox of love
As ending we begin
In the in betweening
Of what will be and was
On the breath of today
In the heartbeat of now
When love is the meaning
How love is the wheel and
Love is what turns the wheel
As above so below
And skin to spark to skin
As below so above
And you and I within
The paradox of love
