Heart’s Feast

 

Heart’s Feast

~

I am in love
with falling in love

it is the most fragile
most fleeting
human experience

reciprocated
it is sublime
beyond measure
or words

when it ends
we fall in love
with the memory
of falling

and the heart loves on
longingly
achingly
gloriously

  1. I like the way you take Augustine’s saying and make it relevant again. Some are unwilling to accept this transient nature of love, so your honesty in this context adds existential depth to the emotions and your words.
