Forever we question the meaning of love, A sensation so grand as if sent from above, Brings fevers and madness moving head to toe, Suggests instead an orgin far down below. Fair that we suffer in company's absense or pleasure, Our own souls good and evil in similiar measure. A delicate flower, A diamond power, Often lost, Never forgotten, Drifting soft and sharp, Like wild thorned cotton. Illusion, Allusion, Delusion, Transfusion. Lies drenched writhing in wanton sighs, Truth donned wistful of eternal youth, Sugared confections with brightly blooming perfection, All equally within reach of mind's great invention. The simple answer to love remains undeniably true, Its desired definition lies within the reflection of you. |

I will carve your heart out with a spork.
My mother and father were always good with words, but I'd assumed everyone's parents were (as they were adults) and it was the expectation to be on par with their abilities one day. My father, upon thought on this, was actually skillful at rhyming, enough to warrant his family's curiosity about why he didn't write greeting cards. Alas, that might of made him a more cheerful soul so...it was a practical life of mathematics for him instead.
I find that poetry, like art, frees the user to express more about a thought when heavy thought is given to it. I am so articulate with my words usually, out of specific desire to be understood, to attempt to filter what I understand as unusual thoughts into comprehensible form. However, even with my best attempts, I still find that words fail, no matter how artful or plain to an audience that refuses to listen; often unable to hear past their own internal discord. Therefor, I find myself in admiration of those who relate to the melody but do not insist it plays exclusively for themselves.
But that is, I suppose, part of the nature of human existence and hence the far-reaching equation in E-V-O-L.
