‘I love him – that’s why we’re together…’ <br /> <br />‘I love her too – but sometimes <br />we drive each other up the wall…’ <br /> <br />If your past, mate, were her past – <br />this person that you ofttimes love; <br /> <br />if her pain – which she does not <br />herself understand, yet feels; <br />(and always at the wrong time for you..): <br /> <br />if her self-awareness – sometimes <br />so sharp and so perceptive – <br />matched at every moment <br />your fluctuating, sometime <br />equally sharp, perceptive, own – <br /> <br />then, you would think and act <br />exactly as she does… <br /> <br />ah, there’s forgiveness; <br />there’s compassion; and there’s peace; <br /> <br />and then, there’s only - love; <br />there’s only love. <br /> <br />Love is always now; <br />and then, there’s only love. <br /> <br /> <br />(With acknowledgements to Eckhart Tolle…)<br /><br />Michael Shepherd<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/relationships-15/
