fallen


I've been pushed to understand
that not all flower become fruit

so I learn from the flower
which is got dried and brown
which is got fallen
and gave up to the grown beneath...

even in the fall, tears of the flower are beautiful

so I let my feeling of having you falls piece by piece
from the tree that still keeps my endless love
because my deepest feeling for you is stuck on its root

the root that make a beautiful gesture in the DARK...
may we all stay most human and most alive

    The beauty of this notion transcends the cynical fatalism of our apocalyptic world view... I am moved by the idea of a love that, even beyond its apparent span of life and perceived utility or decorousness exists, frail but able to germinate a new spring existence. This idea exists in the oldest myths of Osiris and Attis; it is the idea in "The Waste Land" that gives it hope from the start, the idea of lilacs sprouting from the dead land.

    Thank you.
