Love Remains Elusive

A cleansing sun rises at the first light of dawn. And a new day provides a clean slate to write on. You want to believe love outlasts eternity. And yet, you struggle with doubt and uncertainty. In dreams, love's dramatic in both body and soul. And yet, in truth, it oft levies a costly toll. Though happiness abounds, love remains elusive. And its existence is somewhat inconclusive. If love's an illusion; it still sets your heart free. But if you don't believe; it just ceases to be. (Quatrain) 6/29/2015

The power of belief! Love your closing stanza: "Love’s more than illusion it can set your heart free. Yet if you don't believe it just ceases to be." Well done, Emile.

I dream of love often Emile. Why does it have to be so elusive?....A7....I need to do a lot of catching up. I was chasing the baseball around with my 12 year old for the past few weeks. Today starts the first day back to normalcy.
