Love Is Not Mine

I bare all the same
As the humans besides me,
But the love that is supposed —
It doesn’t reside in my hands,
It is a falsity,
To hold with a cage of hands.
—
It is a feign,
For it is not mine nor ours,
I do not hold it
For love is within us,
But it desires not to be held.
—
We will receive it,
Connect and breathe with it,
It flutters and moves —
Traveling amongst us,
It is the path of love —
That teaches us,
Love is not mine,
Because it is a part of everything —
Around all of us.
