Love Potion

Love Potion

A Poem by Igor G. Balatsky
"

'Periodic System of Being'

"

Love potion may be rather strong.

The day will come ~

And it will lose its power.

The myth about love eternal

Is just a kind of bubbles doting.

Because nothing’s unfading

In the land, where the sun’s dying.

Author's Note

Igor G. Balatsky
As a rule, earthly love of a man and a woman is a kind of addiction, that is always illusive. But the effect of narcotic substance passes pretty soon - as the sun fades away at the end of the day. It's like a book that, when having been read, becomes uninteresting – and is put aside. This love is based on lust, possessiveness, unfreedom. (Though exceptions may happen, of course. But they only prove the general rule). And quite another thing is universal love: it has neither the beginning nor the ending; it is infinite, boundless - eternal. That is the whole conception.

except then, maybe, darkness?
maybe love's just too pure a concept to thrive here...and the elements too corrosive..

I can't understand this any better than Jasmine, though I do realize the sun is dying.

I believe love is eternal .. no myth .. just truth .. Why do you say the Sun is dying ? ..
Please explain .. Nothing is un-fading , in a land where the sun is dying .. You words are not clear to me .. please forgive me .. I am trying to understand ..
