Maybe for the Sake of the World

Have you ever felt the earth of your life

crumble, and then experience

the depths of love others have for you,

 

and suddenly become hungry

for shadows, raving, raging, and finding

a way out? If you haven’t,

 

consider nothing impossible. Someone,

or some community of someones,

loves you so much, and maybe for the sake

 

of the world, that you finally see being loved

isn’t so bad after all, and then you change forever

into what you always wanted to be.
