Breaking the circle

Life begins feeling your first love 

Warmth of her hold

Crying for her milk 

All you ever want is to consume that love 


Until you feel that rough beard scratching on your bald head

The one who finds time to do silly things 

Teach you to be brave cautiously 


Find friends who love to play with you 

Hear your madness 

Share stories, sing songs, 

Help you get past those subjects,

Friends who love you but never say so 


Meeting that first pretty person

Who fills your thoughts in ways you never imagined 

Looks at you, listens to you, touches you ever so carefully and carelessly 

Cycle of heartbreaks and healing


Coming to full circle with you holding that little finger 

The rough nights and precious moments that seal the unconditional bond of happiness 


As humans we can be deprived of some of these or even all of it, 

But heart knows love is it’s very nature and it doesn’t need a compass 


From earth to trees

From bees to whales

From rich to poor

From believers to atheists 

From friends to strangers 


Do not age without knowing 

True love is beyond natures biological needs 

For when you rest 

You can rest knowing 

You have touched God
