KG Speakth on Love

Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself.
But if you love and must needs have desires,

let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook that sings,

its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by

your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn,

with a winged heart
and give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart
and a song of praise upon your lips. ~Khalil Gibran
