Love Is In The Will Poem by Ulysses Cabinatan

incantations
images of
false gods
passions, imaginations,
lust, illusions
those magical arts
would be in vain
and cannot affect love
for love is in the will,
love is trust,
and not just a fleeting feeling

love potions
magic invocations
seductions
spells
blood sacrifice
and secret formula
would not be successful
they cannot affect the will,
love is respect,
and not a fickle feeling


invincible
protected
from voodoo crafts or wizardry
free from threats and fears
for the power of love
is pure,
love is good,
and greater than any tricks and sorcery
love is in the will,
and not just a fleeting feeling
