The Story of Man

We are made up of,
elements of creation...
desire and love!

We came to the Earth,
to learn about the lessons...
of gain and of loss!

Love is the reason,
that we must know suffering...
for then it's called life!

It is the reason,
we have developed these souls...
to touch and be touched!

Man discovered love,
when one cared for another...
as much as oneself!

We are the masters,
of the dominion we call...
The land of the Heart!

For we are dying,
and the cure for the illness...
is to but believe!

Enthralling. Easy to read but not simplistic ideally. Loved reading it.
