The Realisation

The Realisation

A Poem by Joe Morris
"

A poem summing up my feelings about the first time I fell in love. Even though sadly it was un-requited.

"

Try to breath you can’t,

Try to shift your view you can’t,

Try to laugh you can’t,

Try to cry, you can.

 

As in life the uncertainties we face,

The realisation of mortality,

A dream that isn’t achieved,

A loved one escaped the bonds of earth and floated away.

Remember that all these things are shadowed, un-signified and dwarfed

By the greatest wonder of the world.

 

Not that of science, a professor would crumble attempting to explain,

Not that of intuition, the sharpest tool would buckle,

But that of human nature,

That of love.
