In Love



In war,
I wonder if it's true,
That when love blows strongest
And he is called to fight,
Those behind, disabled,
Associate strong love with death;
And when they fall in love
Think it can't be strong,
or, if they know it is,
Think they must be close to death
From what makes them disabled?
