Pedestal

 

If true love has such spiritual dimension

then I trust that someday it will find me

 

and as I wait

I ask myself

 all the questions sitting

impatiently on my mind

 

reflecting on…

 

courtly love

forbidden love

self-love

storge love

and of course

 

 divine love

 

those so deeply in love?

 

for example...

 Romeo and Juliet

 

knowing such intimacy exists

 

yet never to bring them

to their union as soulmates

a love

forbidden by others

 

knowing

it was to lead them

to a death of a sinister kind

 

they did it anyway

because they were in fact soulmates

 

thus, finding love

living happily ever after

isn’t just a myth

to those whom have experienced

 such love?

 

 

I myself do believe

 

after all

surely

even just to experience

 that spiritual dimension

 for one single moment whilst I breathe

 

makes the loss so much less painful

eternally giving it

 it\'s very own pedestal.
