Not Without

Songs without the melodies
Poems without the rhymes
Are certainly better
Than poetry without a heart

Beauty that has no face
Sweetness over grace
I would prefer
Than mere desire and obsession

Sun ‘neath the soft white clouds
Full moon with orange and gray around
These things I like
Not a star without shiny sparkle

Novels with few characters
Stubborn and carefree
Books I would choose
Over pages with empty words

What would life be
Without passion and love
How could I die
When I didn’t live in the first place
