Ah, Love #6
Ah, Love! May I address you as a friend?
Which who is most in all the world?
Do you float up and blend in,
Are you conjured up within, then hurled
Without? When love ends, who comes first, you, me?
Friend, tell me how I may ascend
To heights one lives in love’s glad company?
Ah, Love! May I address you as a friend?
Are you so distanced, as to send
Me back to my own selfdom’s snare?
You ulti-mate bait, is that why
you’re there?
