To Be One

 

Not all love

no matter how strong

gets a chance to have a lifetime

of expression

some love

though it be all powerful

can only shine

in the shortness

of just the smallest time

 

being a love that’s true

its life force, its shadow

its tune

will live on in the hearts

of those two

that for whatever time

got the honor,  the privilege

the pleasure

 

to be one…

The thing about love is not the duration or the amount but the quality of the love that matters most.

Carole,

How true. Some loves endure forever, others fade away. I love how you describe this.
