Other than the self —

The existing self

The next realest thing is the ocean —

The deep ocean

Like the self and the ocean

Filled with uncertainties

So is passionate love

To love

To want to love

To want to be loved

To love wholeheartedly

To love passionately

To love unconditionally

To love uncritically

To want to be loved

To be loved

To love and be loved

All of which are emotions, strong

The question is, which one lasts long?

For one, the heart is either whole or not

Though it’s hard to tell in the start while it’s still hot

Who says that love must obey time?

Weighing the conditions therefore breaks the rule

If at all, there is any

For whoever sets it, breaks it anyhow

Truth is, there’s no truth

Not in any previously stated love premises
