Weak Spots Xxviii

"Is it even real if it doesn't last?"
—my Love, my Joy
Lasts in every spark
Of misery

"Happiness must always be fleeting!" 
For us to enjoy 
Those special moments 
All the more—yes!

The way their eyes analyze
Despair and question it—
The way poetry blooms
When the brink of idea fosters

Power—mutability—hope—
Questions answered, ignited,
On lips that truly and madly
Suffer to love and become
