The Laws of Nature
“To break the laws of nature” – What an idea!
For nature is not a suggestion, but a law
We obey.
If longing is not nature,
Then dreams are but fantasies
And the throbbing in our chest
We feel,
Feels no pain.
Then the warmth I feel
Are but ghosts upon my lips.
My very existence, threatened,
By wandering eyes.
For where my eyes wander
“Break” the laws of nature,
That of which cannot be broken.
It is the Law that governs
The direction which
The sky folk fly,
And the way we dance in our
Corner of the universe.
But I break the Law,
I am told.
I do not exist.
And so, to the Law, I give
My dying kiss.
