Fallen Stars

To Love or not to love

if i could lasso
a rainbow and

corral the s

tars

all~
i would place at your feet

if only

you would

just

see

me

There is no shame in loving. The shame is when we allow ourselves to become void of love, thus, becoming incapable of loving others, for we no longer love ourselves. We all face heartbreak. Its how we endure suffering that etches our essence like forged steel. Good or bad, we emerge from suffering learned. We step forward into a new world with new eyes. Like a newborn timidly, yet eager to explore new things. And what perchance love is on the horizon, dare we dismiss fortune, or embrace it like two lovers under a yawning moon? For how would we ever know, if we never even try.
