Light Is Love! Love Is Light

Light Is Love! Love Is Light

A Poem by Richard Lane

a lyric poem

Love Is Light! Light Is Love!


love is light! light is love!

light is love! love is light!

say that again! say that 

again


             and say it like you mean

it and don't hesitiate to repeat

the phrase

until it sinks deep into your consicousness

             yes i know your

             shyness

and that shyness at times

turns into fear

               of failing

at doing something

you love doing




but i also believe that 

any feeling of fear

is only the expectation

      of the other sparks

             of emotion 

whether 

the emotion is happy

or sad 

and those emotions


will more than likely

be the

spark

that moves you into another direction

              you might not

             have thought about

until this

second

and your wig might 

      fall off while your walking

      down the stage

      in the theatre 


show we call real life

and i am not

that about reality tv 

either


               light is love! love is light!

               love is light! light is love!

               light is love! light is love!

               love is light! light is love!



and say it like you mean

it and don't hesitiate to repeat

the phrase line by line

with all apostrophes included

until it sinks deep into your consciousness!

This is a great way to think about love and we all need more of this I guess, I really like the pace of this, as I was reading it I felt like I was running along down the road with the momentum you created.
