So reach out - a poem

Love is when a day is like a dream with no time...

But as real as the pain of heartbreak...

Love is when someone climbs a mountain to see you...

And is breathless from the ascent...

‘You did that for me?’

And vice versa…

And it feels like the most important thing in the world to you…

Love was when we lay in a ball...

A ball of fire begot by the infernos of creation...

Love is when you leave an orbit...

As strong as the orbit of Jupiter...

Love is when you reach out...

Across the valley of misery...

And feel only good...

When you are having a bad day...

Love is the soothing water of infinity...

Love is the elusive scent of all things...

As subtle as the whisperings of a bird...

But as strong as gravity...

Love is the family of meaning...

We carve out every day...

Among false prophecies...

So reach out folks...

Reach out for the stars...

And listen to your heartbeat...

And reach out for the hands of love...

Just reach out...

Into the darkness...

Just reach out...
