Impossible

What is in beauty that can make you agony?
What is in love that seems to tear you apart?
Why would supposedly delightful things become painful?

We are born and we grow up selfish, that is why!

We wish naively to own beauty.
We wish arrogantly to control love.
We wish, after all, what is utterly impossible!

And the impossible hurts more than any other thing!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
