Love's Logic

 

We follow the lines back
to what we understand,
what we know has to be here
for us to be

We pass through voices
that try to slap us down,
to say these things cannot be real,
they are too good -
they are only silly constructs
of our hopes

But we will give each other courage,
we will remind each other  -
we couldn't be here if we didn't care,
and our caring, thus far,
has kept us going,
and nothing, actually,
has ever made our caring stop

So we'll deliver us
back to our source,
so claim the potency
of this and every hour,
becoming stronger
from flowing down this course
as we remember
the nature of our power.
