76. The triumph of love
Is exhibitionism of love a folly, vanity or just stupidity?
The problem is it can't be kept under a bushel.
Love is only true when it cries out
resoundingly to make the world reverberate
and tremble at the genuineness of higher feelings
that in power easily transcend all worldly powers.
Love is more than just an earthquake,
more than just exploding supernovas,
more than just the alteration of world history,
since it is so more subtle in its clandestine vibrations
that can only be observed and felt and recognized
by lovers who are sure of what they feel,
who therefore can control this most tremendous force of nature
and who therefore know that nothing can be greater
than the fundamental heart of life,
which is the urge to just go on, expand
and gloriously continue with your love forever.
