Transformation
I would love it
If you didn't want
To take the risk
Of ending us.
Or if you valued the joy of
What we once and can again possess.
Should the worst occur
and Forever
ends abruptly,
The ensuing pain
Will be worth
Its turbulent change
For I have learned an infinite truth;
Where once was only mythical
Within me,
Now stands knowledge strong, unyielding.
Unafraid of loss or pain
It battles freely without shame
The wounded Ego's last refrain.
Taking now a warriors stance
Shouting out again and back:
YES !!
I can.
I have,
and will continue
to brazenly
and unabashedly
LOVE
another human being
with every inch of my
Existence
