I love you

sami mulaj

I LOVE YOU!

 

I don’t love the linguists

Of my nation

Or of the whole world.

 

They placed an exclamation mark

After “I love you,”

Like a lock

Craftsmen put

On a gate.

 

No, “I love you”

Endures no comma,

No period, no exclamation mark.

 

“I love you” means

I love you without fear of yesterday,

I love your dawn,

I love your pre-dawn origin,

I love your present, with everything,

I love your virtues and flaws.

 

“I love you” means

I love your future,

I love your death,

Beyond death, to infinity.

 

“I love you”

Endures no comma,

Endures no period.

 

That linguists’ period

Made a mess of the world,

With love marked by punctuation,

Bringing doubt,

Division, duplicity, exile,

Violence, abuse, punishment, reparation.

 

I love you,

I love you without comma, without period.

    A most wonderful statement. Yes love means loving all flaws and all. I won't expound more in that the poem states it all.
