paradox of love

Paradox of  LOVE

I WANT TO CLAIM YOU,

YET SET YOU FREE.

WE ARE SO ALIKE,

YET OUR DIFFERENCES ATTRACT US.

MY LOVE FOR YOU IS HUMAN,

YET IT IS DIVINE.

I am your greatest teacher,

Yet I am your greatest pupil.

I AM FILLED WITH YOUR LOVE,

YET MY EMPTYNESS INCREASES.

YOU ARE SO NEW TO ME,

YET YOU SEEM VERY FIMILIER.

MY WAY IS DIFFERENT THAN YOURS

YET ITS ACTUALLY THE SAME

WHEN I AM MY I AM AND YOU ARE YOUR I AM

WE BECOME THE ONE.

COME WITH ME MY LOVER,

WE SHALL WALK TOGETHER.

YET IT ALWAYS SEEMS THAT WE ARE ALL

ALONE!

Surely the Gods
spoke through
you, when you
took pen to paper
to  celebrate
the infinite paradox
of Love, and love,
and loving.
For is it not
when lovers
are far apart
that they feel
closest
and when
they are inside
each other,
they know
the vast silence
of Eternity
and deep space?
As the shadow
sang to the Poet:
“I am beside
you now.”
