#24 of Poetry

A poem about how painful love can be, but at the same time, a person cannot truly live without love.

_Illusion_

Where does thy heart lie?   
Must it beat so insistently so?   
Thy Ruins of love seep in thy heart   
Thy Woes of love run through thy veins.   
Though love is not equal,   
All suffer the same.

The rotten corpse   
Is all which remains   
Of thy lasting love.   
Thy heart lies dead;   
Love stops the beat.

Resist thy love!   
If you wish to live.   
Love lift thy spirits   
And blow them away.

Mind ponders   
Blood waits   
Heart yearns

To feel it enter your soul,   
A tragedy to be sure.

Love has no love.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Anatomy of the soul must be...&nbsp;  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Love.
