It might be said that love is an overused word; 'love the look of that dress,' 'love chocolate,' etc, etc.

But that is perhaps not to understand love for what it is; rather than simply a word to describe something that is quite impossible to quantify.

Love must indeed never die, it cannot, for without it, our species would cease to exist.

Beccy.

I love that the last line brings everything full circle. This piece has a very simple message, but expresses it in a poignant way. Thank you for sharing.

ONION FRIEND
YOU REMINDED ME OF THIS:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxnqSTzq6-w

"(winter, summer, converging)

where things grow, there is hope
all that heals has hope
out of bonds of ice, she appears
from a cold sky, she inches herself forward

The world seems still, all is calm
all is silent, hope is sparked
while everything advances, flows forward
comes into existence, then there's hope

she illuminates everything there is
all that is and was and will be
until she lies in deep sleep
in the depths of the mountain halls

where things glow, there is hope
all that heals has hope
out of bonds of ice, she appears
from a cold sky, she inches herself forward

The world seems still, all is calm
all is silent, hope is sparked
while everything advances, flows forward
comes into existence, then there's hope

she melts everything there is
all that is and was and will be
until she lies in deep sleep
in the dreams of the mountain halls

in an eternal circle..."

ISNT IT BEAUTIFUL?!

(also love never dies, but the intent does :^) most of the times and thats a bummer to the whole equation)
