Love's Duality

Let us not think that love is a choice,
love is a way of life.
On a personal level, love flows
into and out of dark crevices,
into and beyond indecision,
into and through all the darkness,
and into the morning sun.
How often we want to be loved
even in our darkest aspects,
but how seldom do we give that back.
The heart experiences exhilaration
in the glory of the morning sun,
the choice is only to breathe deep again
and open your heart to the glory within.
Such is love in a world of duality,
the thick, the thin, the dark, the light,
flowing constant,
morning, noon and night.
when you understand these things
love can flow
without pain.
