Love truisms

Is love a sin? No, never!
The only sin of love is not to share it
but to keep it to yourself,
containing it under a bushel
and not let it forth to light and to expand,
for that's the only way for love to live:
by growth, by sharing and expansion.
If I love, the worst thing I can do
is not to let the loved one know it,
and the only love that could be called unlucky ever
was the love that never was made known.
The force of love is exteriorization
and expansion by multiplication,
and there never was a force or power
that could ever check it or contain it
if it was just natural and true.
