Continuity


How long can you go on loving?
You just have to carry on
and never let your passion down,
since you live only while you love.
It doesn't matter how you love,
but only that you feel it honest and sincere
with all your being constituting only love.
It is your only obligation in your life,
that's only why you live
and how you can go on with it,
it is what's keeping you alive,
the one thing capable of continuity
and even after life – there's nothing else
that constantly can keep you going on
through all adversities, debacles, tragedies,
departures, losses, crises, death and cataclysms;
since the great secret of the elixir of love
is that it always will survive.

Love! I once, many years ago, read a work by Stendhal, of which I remember nothing. Perhaps I was too young, and should read it again.
I do remember Biblical words..."Love suffereth long and is kind.."
I also believe that familial love is far stronger than sexual.
Enjoyed your words.
