Relentless
silence
sips through
your crystalized eyes
an answer
our love
has come to an end
yet my thirst doesn't relent
I pick up your crystal
one by one
and melt them
with my lips
knowing well
silence
is still
sipping
through

Lovely. I'm giving up writing love poems and just write about my two cats. I've been broken hearted for too long, and besides, I'm too old to love again.

I don't think so. But it is your decision if you think that.

The crystalline metaphor is a good one. Maybe my own one-pointed nature has steered me away from the romantic version of LOVE. I have experienced plenty of it. But now I love the energy inside me. I can feel the LIFE making everything possible. My heart wouldn't be able to beat without conciousness. It's there, behind dogs and cats and trees. There's no expectation. People have expectations. Then they fall out of love. I love being FREE. Energized. We are all suns if we want to be.

I agrree with you totally. Love is an energy flow, it exists in every one, it is love things, people, mankind and life in general, not just about sex.
