A Very Special Pedestal

A Very Special Pedestal

If true love has such spiritual dimension
then I trust that someday it will find me
Ā 
and as I wait
I ask myself
all the questions sitting
impatiently on my mind
Ā 
reflecting on…
Ā 
courtly love
forbidden love
self-love
storge love

and of course
divine love
Ā 
those so deeply in love?
Ā 
for example...
Romeo and Juliet
Ā 
knowing such intimacy exists
Ā 
yet never to bring them
to their unionĀ 
a love
forbidden by others
Ā 
knowing
it was to lead them
to a death of a sinister kind
Ā 
they did it anyway
because they were in fact soulmates
Ā 
thus, finding love
living happily ever after
isn’t just a myth
to those whom have experienced
such love?
Ā 
I myself do believe
Ā 
after all
surely
even just to experience
that spiritual dimension
for one single moment whilst I breath
Ā 
makes the loss so much less painful

eternally giving it
a very special pedestal.
Ā

The truth finally crawled out of its grave—
