Love




"Love" (by Joe DiMino)





Who can say where it comes from?


Only that it's there:


when least expected,


thought to be antique


or rare


if not obsolete,


one night as the air holds only dream and moonbeam


we are kept awake by a tingling...


an unsettling of the heart;


a wanting that calls for another


longing for a missing part;


we warn ourselves a thousand times


that only fools think of love rhymes...


yet inclined as addicts


in an opium den


we will try to find heaven again....
