~The Lotus Children

Love is within us all,

It is within me,

And it is within her.

Binding us together,

But the bond is broken.

There are faint threads,

That shall never be destroyed.

Except by us,

Do I cut these threads?

Can I kill beauty in its purest form?

Is it really beauty any longer?

Time and Environment, has worn it down

Sullied and besmirched it pulchritude,

It is no longer the Love that was.

The rapture between her and me is no more.

We were beautiful Lotus Children,

Planted with love on fertile soil.

They grew hundred of marvelous petals,

A world of color in each.

As they reached to the sky,

They climaxed in their moment of ecstasy.

There was no time, there was no space,

They were but one, joined together as one heart,

To become love itself.

But just as the lotus,

They fall subject to the nature of our existence,

To wither, to wane, to meet its demise.

But this is not the story of a tragedy,

For as the last petal falls to the ground

It fertilizes the seeds,

To grow a stronger lotus.

A connection that will live longer

To live longer, to live stronger,

Living in Love

For love is within everyone

Love is inside her

Love is inside me

And love is within you.
