Life's First Unspoken Law

 


(A lone voice whispers)


You do know deep love

Even if it sometimes hurts


From separation from family or friends who have crossed over


And all things left may seem broken or unfinished 


It does not rust 


Like iron or steel abandoned in one of life's forbidden forests


But forever will bloom and flow like a torrent 

Throughout you


Like a soft hurricane filled with golden ethereal dust


For the gift given by your chosen God at your birth


Through its unspoken Life's First Law 


Which says in it, you must trust


Life's Unspoken First Law


Love and let yourself be loved from the first day of your birth 


And your memory will never be extinguished and left to be vanquished and relinquished


By anyone who knows you

As you live with love and exchange love 


Like your God, 

Your king 

Once wished


Before you were born 

Here on Earth
