Love Revolution

I feel afraid, isolated, unmade,

Stable, yet unable to let in new friends

And, I see you avoid eye contact too,

Share a forced grin, let angry and bitter slip in

Get ready for…

The solution?

Love revolution

Darkness hopes to percolate,

drown us in illusory hate

I stop, amazed to ponder the ways

That this absence of light should

make us feel safer at night

Isn’t love the superior feeling?

Yet, we are reeling

Love is thicker than water and pleasurably hotter

It’s Mother Nature’s daughter,

so easy to spot her

But she’s picked at, though,

scavenged by every black crow

(Don’t you know?)

The solution? A love revolution

Is this the true course of mankind?

To freely unwind?

To drown this sacred emotion into the ocean?

I am amping up, getting on board,

playing the heart-shaped chord

You will follow, I pray,

and sidestep that cynical fray
