Into Two

The concept of love
or so we say
is of two into one

And thus the flow
of a rivers run
two rivers flow into one

?

A remarkable distraction
and of unity
must first accept division

‘Tis so the ego predicts
separation
to consider itself above
and raise itself upon the pedestal
of love

Two become one
and for love so foreswear
but still hold fast

I give and so you must therefore accept  

?

Or in taken must first be given
but by conundrum
denounce its intention

Such a pliant thing
this thing of love
to be molded thus

Still to ease its heart
unquestioned
is but a flippant morsel
of loves invention

One into two
is the ocean
and of love is its attributes recognition

One flows into two
