how is it
that one can love all
and yet, love only one
to be loved by all
but only let one love thee
focusing on one
whether person,
group,
family,
friend,
is deadening the love for all others
and for self
I have let my love flow freely for so long
and now I try to cage it
why? it doesn't like the cage
it tries to escape
if it can't
it babbles of the days
when it was free to roam
when it could love all
and be all
and have all
you have to listen to it babble
and as it babbles
it drives you closer
and closer
and closer
to insanity
as if you weren't there already.
but now
you can't let it go
it can't be free again
not without hurting one
the one you love
the one you caged your love for
the one you now die for
