Read Poem: THE ANATOMY OF LOVE, by Joseph Oneil

The eyes of love are windows of the horizon with a view
On life which is as beautiful as the beginning of a new day.
Its face is like the light side of the moon,
Always present in life’s darkest moments.
Love has no back to turn on us, for its feet are transgressors of fear,
Always moving towards the woes in life that others refused to bear.
Its bosoms are riverbed that welcomes the flow from an ocean of tears,
Embracing the world forgotten and nourishing them with care.
The heart of love is chambers of forgiveness which host no judge,
For with wisdom, it knows that missteps are a natural part of life’s gait.
Its shoulders were perfectly designed to pillow others’ pain,
cushions of compassion that hold the heads of the weary straight.
Many measured love through romance in vain,
For only the scale of sacrifice knows loves true weight.Rea
