Not Hidden Nor Forbidden

Is love truth or is it a lie

which sometimes grows as years go by?

We may find no recognition

in its common definition.

Love is not something we make.

It is more like a lucky break.

It is more given than received,

like an ideal we have believed.

It is not tangible at all

like a rock fence or cement wall.

It doesn’t keep anyone out

and it is a good thing no doubt.

Love really is absolute truth

and it isn’t reserved for youth.
