RIVER OF LOVE



As the Thorn Protects the Rose, My Pen Preserves Our Love



RIVER OF LOVE

I am your River of Love.

Flowing from my heart to yours.

Carving passionately through mountains,

Cascading joyfully over giant cliffs.

My currents pulse with purpose,

Eager to spill into your ocean,

Flooding the world with Love,

Praying I won’t be dammed.

Caution! 
There are those, my Love,

Who would stifle my flow,

Halt its mission,

Divert its Pure Purpose.
Dam it.

These are the rapists of Love,

The abusers,

Tyrants,

Whose joy is aborting Love’s Evolution.

They are the loveless,

Empty, broken-hearted souls,

Shells of long lost creatures,

Bent on scarring Love’s purity.
Of crushing its embryo.

They laugh at True Love,

Cast its ideals to hungry dogs,

Ravage its vision with drunken eyes,

Scoff at its precious, endless virtue.

I shoulder forward,

Great waves crashing,

Bursting obstacles that dam my goal,

Of flowing free into your arms.

I flood these Fools of Love,

Drowning them in my Passion,

Sending their vacuous souls scurrying,

For high ground far away.

Then I gush and roil,

Heaving and pulsing,

As the scent of salt

Teases my brineless being.

In one great gasp,

I thrust my river

Into your waiting arms,

Unified,

Salt and Saltless.

I am your River of Love forever,

Cyrano!
