love

temporal feeling
Love is not a come and gone
nor a sometimes friend

physical paining
Love is not wounding my heart
by perceived absence

turbulence and calm
Love allows these to ride in
its constant being

an ocean of life
Love fills and is filled formless
a suffrage of truth

Thanks! I was actually planning to begin to work with more free form peoms, as you suggest. I just wanted to practice for a while with a very structured style.
