Beautiful Sadness Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Love is above joy and pain
Encompassing the moment of joy and the moment of sorrow
Love is above the everyday emotional outbursts
It is a sacred hand that soothes the heart in pain
And a beautiful flower full of sweet nectar
To nourish the mind, body and Spirit
In times of sorrow, Love is a house of comfort
And in times of happiness, Love is a basket of joy
Overflowing with the mystical beauty of existence
Love teaches us the joy of forgiveness
And the art of humility
Love extend to us the hand of compassion
And does not require anything back
Just for us to be in Love
To be in an eternal eclipse of Love
Love is the joy of waking up
And the pain of waking up
Love is the sorrow that bind our hearts in our darkest moments
And the tears that washes our face of all the sorrow
Love is abundant with both joy and sorrow
Mysteriously entangled
In an everlasting sanctified embrace
