Someday, when you are running
to the train station,
or when,
you are strolling in the park,
lazily,
looking at the falling leaf,
coming down from the blue sky,
you will notice another
pair of eyes,
and you will wonder,
if...
pleasure
has yet another dimension
with an unacquainted pair of eyes,
then you will also ponder,
whether we are moved by the forces
of pleasure and profit alone,
or whether we are driven
by that illogical, undiscoverable,
magical feeling inside us.

It is not beauty alone
It is not the abundance of wealth
It is not shared poverty
It might grow on beaches
It might give birth to gods
It is more colorful than the rainbow
It is indescribable
It does not drip like blood
It might seem untouchable
It is definitely imaginable
But you still always wonder
If it ever exists
The warmth, the tears, the jealousy,
The aggression, the beauty ...
LOVE
