SET IT FREE

Mompu

I think we’ve taken love the wrong way,
It was never taught to us—until today.
Let me unblind you, let you see the truth:
How the conception of love was always misunderstood.

Imagine you see a beautiful flower—what do you do?
You’re happy, seeing it bloom so beautifully, aren’t you?
You adore it so much that you pluck it and take it home,
Put it in a vase or a book, and forget it after a day or two.

But love, like that flower, thrives best when it’s free,
To grow, to bloom, to dance in the wind, wild and free.
When confined to a vase or book, its beauty fades away,
Its fragrance dims, its colors turn to gray.

For it is beautiful when it’s set free;
Let it bloom like flowers in a meadow, you’ll see.
If it’s meant for you, it’ll always be—
Do not jail it, for it’ll always try to flee.

    Excellent simile to beautifully express what fewer realize than should. Give the horse his head and then fly where he takes you; don't try to force or captivate and crush what is delicate and sweetest free.

      Thank you for such a thoughtful and beautifully crafted insight. Your words remind me of the importance of trusting the natural flow and allowing things to unfold in their own time. It’s a powerful reminder to embrace freedom in creativity and life.

      A true statement. Set it free and if it returns then it is meant to be. Nicely said
