Zero What?


You brought light

To my eyes

You brought back the smile

To my lips

You brought wisdom

And together with mine

That made two and two

Be five

You brought sane insanity

Unreasonable reason

You also brought

The burden of your past

And together with mine

Made two and two

Be five.

That makes me

Ask how

Why

How can we manage

To start

From zero?

A delight to read, Dulce...very skilfully crafted, and a beautiful poem about the infinite imbalance that is hopeless love.

Dulce, you are again alive!
Light to your eyes
smiles to your lips
And two plus two is still five!

Beautifully chosen words!

Happy faces :) :) and Love from Florida-Peep

A lovely clever play with words. X In love sometimes two and two are five.
