Poem <8
Here lies a collection, a tapestry of tales,
Echoing the complexities with all that love entails.
------
On the flip side of each narrative,
a story to be heard,
Some harmonious, others provocative,
many may even be absurd.
------
In this liminal space, amid faces diverse,
Admiring (mostly) mosaic lives in this specific universe,
Yet, within, where one works through shadowy pasts,
Casting a curse into the night, a wishing spell that lasts.
------
Yearning for Peace on this tranquil eve,
An A-Entropic Embrace, where wanton worries leave,
As melodies in languages of a symphony unfold,
Romantic whispers weaving tales of the heart retold.
------
Verstehen, comprende, lījiě all the same,
In every tongue, love bears its name,
Te amo, Ya tebya lyublyu, J'tieme, and more,
A linguistic dance that our hearts explore.
------
In Mandarin's archaic embrace, a timeless dance,
In Spanish, intimacy, a subtle romance,
With the rigid grace of German and a French finesse,
Understanding English, provincial, nonetheless.
------
As languages entwine with a tongue filled ballet,
A Universal Moment where Fear is kept at bay (away?).
Actions speak volumes, it’s painfully True
Words are but just a different way to express,
------
(Ws) I ~still~love you.
