"I find love to be an indefinable force that sometimes has no reason, and therefore makes our wanting of it all the more desirable." - BlueyedSoul


219. Untouchablility



Don't turn my love into some palpability
but let me keep it free from agony of coarse reality
and thus preserve it better as an indefinability
to cherish and feel free to cultivate without hostility
from rivals, complications and outrageous culpability.
Thus saith my love: "You'd better not risk touching me,
for then I might prove real." I will not touch my love
but rather dream away from it and reach it better that way,
since the language spoken into dreams is clearer
and much more reliable than what all words in lies are able to express.
There is no love but abstract love,
there is no truth in love but in the soul,
and love made concrete is one way into a trap
where you get stuck and nothing more can save you
until death restores your soul and freedom.
So keep clean and out of love's more practical manifestations,
and in that way you will manage to stay on in love forever.

BlueyedSoul
Possibly you are correct, but my romantic soul cannot let go of hoping for perfection in this life or even eternity No other force can reckon such passion with what my heart craves.
Exquiste writing as always Christian.
