ODE TO AMORE
LOVE. The L Word. We obsess about it. Sing about it. Scribe about it. Fantasize about. Ache for it. Go to war over it. Dream about it. Loose sleep worrying about it. When we don’t realize that we have it, we idly search for it. When we finally discover it, we don’t know what to do with it. When we have it, we constantly fear losing it. It is a constant source of pleasure and pain. An endless ebb and flow of intense, cleansing emotions.
It is a short word.
It is a passionate word.
It is an orgasmic word.
It is a compassionate word.
It is a heartbreaking word.
It is a healing word.
It is a peaceful word.
It is a powerful word.
Easy to spell, yet a little bit of a “drama-queen” of a word!
All I know is that the spaces between our fingers were created so that another could fill them in.
So, the word LOVE may be difficult to define, BUT it is IMPOSSIBLE to live without.
"WHEN THE POWER OF LOVE OVERCOMES THE LOVE OF POWER-THE WORLD WILL KNOW PEACE" - Jimi Hendrix
