Even when Everything blows up Love remains After all Love is a choice And, as I once said to my son As he curiously witnessed My open hurting heart "Be sure and choose it every day" Again And again And when you don't want to AGAIN No matter the pain No matter how painful Because When you do It comes back to you Again And again ALWAYS. ~Just L (found poem, May 8, 2009) Author's Note: I finally wrote this down on May 8, 2009. I said these very words to my son after he returned from Iraq in May of 2005. I have believed this FOREVER, and always will. |
