I write about love because it’s better than guns
War is happening now
Some innocent woman is being tortured in a dark cave somewhere by a bunch of fucking bastards
Bombs are going off
Children are dying of cancer
Dads are raping their daughters
A mother gets a midnight knock on her door from the police with the news of her teenage sons death
The life support was cut
The budgets were cut
Money is the root of yet another suicide
Our president wants us to drink powdered milk,…mmmm
The aspiring starlet hangs herself in the belfry
But, Good news is on the way!
There is a cure!
The baby made it out of surgery alive and alert
Her husband made it home from war
A tree was planted
Someone swam in the ocean for the first time
The crack head on fourth street found god and got a job
The leg was amputated and the infection won’t kill you
He realized he didn’t want to cheat on his wife
Mom is meditating
The rain fell soft and we stayed in bed all day
Eyes met on a subway and that night a baby was made
Her childhood dreams became a reality
A family of refugees is reunited after 4 years of separation
A couple that has been married for 70 years has the best lovemaking of their lives and die in each others arms smiling
The babies get to eat a warm meal and so does mom
There is a heartbeat
She remembered her beauty is within, then someone kissed her with passion and longing and devotion
The children are laughing
The birds are chirping
The belly is blooming
The laundry is done
The home is a home, finally
There is hope.
There is love.
There is suffering.
There is death.
Live while you can and love while you live.
