The Love We Seek
The love we seek
Is not real
Or is it?
There’s so much time we spend on this
This searching
Real or not real?
We find someone
Only to loose them
Or ourselves
Idealized love is a deep green forest
Real life gets in the way and it is burnt to ashes
However, a flower grows still
Grows from the ashes
Like a phoenix
Rebirth
Rebirth of hope
Resurrection of truth
Or lies?
No one knows
No one ever will
We are all connected
Don’t you see?
Lay on Mother Earth
Feel her breath
Feel every living things heart beat
It’s beautiful
The most beautiful thing you have ever seen
Except for the promise in your lover’s eyes
You cannot get them out of your head
Those swirls of gold
Speckles of amber
Magical
Like when you were small
You had no worries
You were free in your youth
But you did not see the freedom
You only saw chains and the promise of a future
But when you look in your lover’s eyes
Do you feel this again?
You both lay on the grass now
Looking up at space and time
You breathe with each other
With the world itself
With the whole universe
This love
Is the love you seek
But it will not free you
Only realizing this truth will
