The Mystery

January 26, 2014

Love is a mystery

Love demands

Complete devotion

Love demands

Cooperation

Love demands

Sacrifice

Love demands

Relinquished control

Mankind craves love

Stories are written

Tales are told

Faiths are created

Morals are based

On love

And yet

Love is rejected

Eternal, faithful love discarded

For faithless, ephemeral lust

So truly, which is more the mystery?

Mankind, or love?
