Recovery


                                    I thought I had loved before.
                                    Like a chaotic wave
                                    it hit me...
                                    I had not!
                                    It was the dream of love.
                                    Yearning.
                                    Starving.
                                    Feeding myself,
                                    for I felt I would die
                                    if I did not love.
                                    and die I did for years.
                                    Decades.
                                    Fooling myself.
                                    Let suffering be
                                    my lover,
                                    my demon,
                                    my hell.
                                    Loving you
                                    is the phenomenon
                                    that tore my eyes open.
                                    I had never loved before.
                                    I had only touched
                                    a dream.
                                    You are not a dream.
                                    You are the the first
                                    that I have ever
                                    loved.

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
