Life-a series
of endless variations
on same themes
in different intensities
  in constant contradiction-

the lacuna, the opaqueness
the lack of transparency
the mist and the haze
the veil and the obscurity

and even as we speak
something is missing- authenticity
is far flung- words are shrouded
in strange mystery

the poets how they write
of love in all their over-enchanted poetry
but experience does prove sadly
love can be such misery in reality!
