You are love

You are love

And you deserve love

Sadly this world is

So often

Not loving

But nature it drowns in love

And the morning sky always whispers

Its promise of love

Spreading above us

Its changing canopy of all shades of blue, white,

red, orange, ochre,

and sometimes grey

Love so often hides

Deep inside all of this beauty

And if you can attune

You may feel it too

For love really

Created all of these magical things

Only humans lose the way to love

Following phantoms

Locked deep inside false trances

Of unworthiness

And sometimes

Only our heartbreak can open our souls

To the truth

Of love denied or stolen

And the pain of heartache

Reveals to us

The soul’s absolute

And most essential need

Is love
