ODE TO LOVE

Love becomes perfect only when it transcends itself
Becoming one with its object:
Producing unity of being.
The ordinary lover loves a secondary phenomenon,
I only love the real.
I would like to know- What,
A man who has no love has really gained.
What a man in love has not gained.
Assuredly there is a price on this knowledge,
Is it to be given only to the people who can keep it -
Not loose it ?
Question a man in love !
Seek his strongest desire !
And he will answer:
"That the sun should vanish,
Should remain veiled forever in the clouds."
Such is the power of " LOVE "
A true lover finds the light,
Only if he is like the candle,
His own fuel - " Consuming himself."
