When You Love You Do Not Lose If You Only Will To Keep It
when you love
when you love deeply and truly
like you have placed everything in you inside a small bowl
so fragile, breakable and perishable
shiny piece, porcelain white, unstained,
or a fruit glossy for the moment
or a flower blooming only for a day
like the way he loves you like the way he changes his mind
after you have given it all
when love is pronounced dead on arrival
do not weep
do not scream do not ever utter a word fit for sorrow and departure
keep the love that you still want everlasting
deep in your heart that love still clings and still works for your delight
be selfish on this, and be so private
do not give that up as a nightmare keep it as a dream always
and deep in your heart
you have so much to gain as a memory that shall last forever
and in this way
you have never lost
