If As Fire

IF fire lights Hearts
IF fire ignites starts
IF fire starts all Love
then by love i shall 
burn all the world
within my love!
  Love is not of Men
and Love is not of
those fair maidens
called women
  But by the gods;
that, if by gods must
be men it is women
that speaks slowly
and clearly ... i say,

"if by any breathing
love then by beautiful
rose and if by rains
then by blue skies!"

--that of humanity!
by such was a poet
unknown we agreed:
~:solving the depths
of both sadness and
happiness we fall
between those two
the architecture
of emotional physics!
