Love Extends
Love extends beyond the rules
set by those who are confused
by their sight bound to ignorance
relevance set by experience
what’s not known may fill a world
when passion is sure to diverge
seeking paths beyond the norm
that lazy trail of dogma’s charge
unable to see past the choice
made by the most conservative
count all the persons in this group
when nothing matches from high to low
instead consider that love will find
the balance found between minds
with hearts entrusted to explore
the ways that confirm this fervor.
