another enigma


Unconditional love



Love must of course be unconditional,
or else it isn't love,
or if there are conditions set by love
they are the hardest and the most impossible
to satisfy, surmount and challenge,
wearing you completely out
and leaving you a shred of wreckage
hardly able to survive,
since there is nothing more exhausting than true love,
that must have all or nothing,
craving unconditional surrender
penetrating everything and most of all your soul
which must be violated, changed and recreated
just in order to survive at all, continue and go on.
But once you have surrendered, given up completely
and are at the mercy of your lover and your love,
the worst is over, and you can start living.
That's where life begins,
that's where you'll find it and be able to enjoy it,
since once you have given up yourself,
surrendered unconditionally all your love,
you will receive it and continue be receiving it forever.

A powerful argument for the truth about love. You have stated the case perfectly and given the results: life! Amen Sir!!

Hi Chris, how true! And how wonderfully and skillfully put!

Yes, love is not love, if it approval seeks
Love is not love, which never gives and only recieves...
Love has to be selfless, love has to be 'sacrifice'

Thanks for sharing in this!
(((Hugs)))
Love, Zoya
