gentle reminders

when life gives you lemons
you add water and sugar and fizz
to sooth parched throats on a hot summer day.

when life gives you love though,
we tend to add distrust and jealousy,
obsession and possession,
promises and eternity,
and transform it
into an unbelievable mess
of passion and freedom,
of soul, body, and mind.

Let us doubt our minds
and follow our hearts.

At the very least,
we will be together,
when destruction comes.
