Longing...

We--
A tired tear
Fallen from
Love's eye
Divided
In two...
Half me,
Half you
Both
Longing
For union...

Wafi, this is a great little

Wafi, this is a great little poem, 'a tired tear, fallen from love's eye', wonderful line, I love it. And Unity? isn't it what we all struggle for, strive for? I'm starting to think it comes from being whole and not half, we perhaps need to find completion in ourselves and not, maybe, in the arms of another? Just my thoughts Wafi, which your poetry so often provokes in me, thank you, much love b xx

a tired tear

A tired tear Can tear What it can do apart From tear It obviously can Mend And Two loving hearts repair. The kiss of the tear, Can make two hearts, Love one another Though poles apart LOVED
