Yet another shot at pinning down Love


Doesn't Love come
In all shapes;
All sizes;
All colours.
Multiple times.
Simultaneously. 
In all ways;
In any way,
Anyways. 

Reflection
Of oneself,
In other eyes. 
Perception of
A piece of divinity. 
The sunshine.
Timelessness.
Limitlessness.
Spontaneous connection-
A oneness. 
Synchronicity in the air. 

If all that be Love,
Don't we then go all ways? 
Woman, Man, Fluid, Trans...
Lame, Sightless, Deaf, One-armed...
Socialist, Communist, Capitalist, Humanist... 
Hindu, Buddhist, Jew, Christian, Muslim, Jain... 
Married.
Single.
Divorced.
Separated.
Complicated... 

What else cannot be transcended? 
Beyond. 
In Love. 
Every One,
A potential soulmate. 
You would see your reflection,
In the nasty worm 
that eve-teased you,
or adam-teased,
In the bus yesterday. 
But if you meet your teaser
In the dark alley
And see your reflection,
as (s)he overpowers you,
And don't whack your reflection
In the balls, 
Genitals, 
If that is what it takes; 
Then I will call you 
Completely cuckoo! 

If I am in limitedness,
Can I perceive limitlessness? 
If I am incomplete,
How can anybody ever complete me? 
If I am not in love with myself,
Do I really, truly, love anyone else? 
Love knows no sacrifice. 

Clarified, rare, moments
Of pure perception,
Oneness of being
That needs no more doing. 
Isn’t it its own doing?
Doesn't Love fulfil itself? 
We do more: 
Plan 
Expect 
Talk 
Demand 
Court 
Marry 
Protect      
Help... 
For ourselves.
