Love Beyond Earth
Can you believe I seen love at the corner, trembling cold, naked.
Begging the people for quilt. For warmth .
Kneeling beneath the star lite sky ,eating it self.
With no other food to be eaten.
Its feet tar black, it seemed to have walked a far distance,
but still walking towards people begging with persistence.
Its left arm amputated, but still gives a lady a warm embrace,
in return for a measly coin.Its eyes held the innocence of a baby.
Its face bloody, with scares of a trojan warrior.
Its heart peaking out of its chess,
blown by winds of foul hatred , but still enveloped with shards of loving light.
I first helped him tuck his heart in.
Then I asked how do you survive in this world of hatred and deadly flying arrows? love replied:i survive on shreds of love ,
for I have endured generations of wholesome hatred .
A day turned in to weeks,weeks to months. Times of the hour glass had past and
this love in flesh i never seen again.
Until I had a dream I was on a corner,reading a tombstone.
Etched on it was, the hours of love has past,
now in the earth he lays, r.i.p love.
Love has ascended beyond( earth & hour),to dwell in eternity.
