Flirting with time

We get far too comfortable

in the love we feel

we hold our belief way too close

that the pain we inflict upon each

other will heal

the reality is

we're dying

day by day

everyday

is more important than the last

one more day

we have to call the past

one less day

we have to cast

our love

into the river of humanity

to be partaken of.

Love is the healing this world needs, Pierre. I agree with the philosophical point of view that you present here. Thank you. Love and peace,
