A life without love Is a life without ends Not a road Just a stationary point Maybe a life with one single end— the one without love Only one cause to strive for And truly just one without more Maybe a life with not one end at all A life as a permanent “x” One point in history And no true value at all A life without love Why life at all? Still we breathly*strive All without tone How can life exist without tension? How can harmony continue to be, Or anything without boundaries? No limits because the limit is itself Not even French man, Lagrange   Could solve this one life The one without love The one that sets itself as none So I do my best impression of the sun Extending its ten thousand rays through the whole The many ends and ways I let Love create All out me and the itch inside my soul And I do my best impression to revolve Become the revolution that I must long for So I do my best impression of all that crosses my path Wildly roaming as the wallowing water road A river that can’t be just one permanent sea And so I ask and plea To excuse myself from my wish “Dear Sky, today I want be me, A river that obeys no one” And I ask my spheric, life-long ceiling “Do you have limits at all? No corners or endings You yourself have become one” And today I ask for forgiveness I do not want to mirror a limit I want to run across the sphere And become, until love extinguish

Attempt One: Why Love?
