The depths of love
Love will take on many forms
but none will ever be consummate.
However, every form is good enough,
whatever its expression, and can never be mistaken:
love is always recognized as love,
even when its language is contempt and hate;
which is why it's so important
to interpret love correctly:
that's the true art, seeing love behind it all
when that's the character behind it,
masked and enigmatic, dark and puzzling,
difficult to get the hang of or imposing,
the art of understanding being the most difficult of arts
and also the most necessary and advanced,
which you will never, like with love itself,
be able to be fully educated in.
