* * *
The more they deplore, attempt to destroy
The more I fall in love, fiercely adore
* * *
* * *
The more they imprison, crush or trash
The more I delight, hold dear and revere
* * *
* * *
The more they smash, sever or detach
I will kiss it better, wholeheartedly embrace
* * *
* * *
Do as you please, choose evil be vile
Break me, you will never… shake me you will fail
* * *
* * *
My inexplicable verve -driving you insane, is not of my own
A droplet from above, bequest of the Divine, Most Loving Sublime
