true love litters my life
my list of highs and lows
for certain the genesis
of the highest highs
and lowest lows
as with anything,
the higher the climb
the further
and more painful
the fall

love is a living creature
it needs to fed
to be nourished
but even when nourished,
it is infinitely fleeting,
dying

I've always tried
to cherish it while I have it
and brace for the loss
when it's fate seems uncertain
that's all I've found to do

it is unpredictable
it can't be tamed
or held captive
a wild beast
relentless in its thirst
The title was kindly borrowed from Heliza Rose.  Thank you.

She moves free like the breeze
Going wherever it takes her
Floating high above life
Above the complexities
Her mind follows gracefully
She speaks only art
Through soft pink lips
She shapes and creates
Floating sculptures, art exhibits
They flow from her mouth
Elegantly crafted and vivid
But the real art
The best made sculpture
Can be found
In the curve of her hips
