When love finds the self....

Confusion abounds in the life of the soul

When love draws near, scattering the whole

Life as its known, goes on a twist

Impressions galore, fleeting as the mist.

Losing oneself, yet finding the self

Hidden in depths, treasures in myself

Leaning on someone, now here then gone

Mist over the moor, a long drawn moan.

Where the self, where is it gone?

Lost in the love of someone bygone

Searching for self in another day's morn

Yet the mirror reflects the eye of the storm.

At home in the present, love comes to abide

Chaotic yet peaceful, a nugget to hide.

Blooming like a Lily, pure as the light

Arising from shadows, Phoenix in the night.

When love finds its soul, stilling the quest

It blooms from within, encompassing the nest

A nugget to treasure, from within not without

Radiating kindness, compassion, nothing to withhold.

- Ann Joseph
