nivek: Poems

foreign language of love
hardly believable
consequently rejected

in heart of hearts
purity of intention
equalling action

love fulfills loving
constant
everlasting.

a heart.

some will land on your doorstep
some will burst through your door
some will shatter your complacency
some will make you beg for mercy
some will break open your heart.
