Uncontrollable Manifestation Poem by Ntozake (Saki) Stringfield

I love unconditionally
I know not of any other way
Devote my entire being
As if I was nothing until the day love made its way to me
This lion
This uncontrollable feeling
Its manifestation overpowering my world burrowing into my soul
Falling apart at the same time being made whole
I Love
Without its name what would one say
What would be the word to describe something that if broken down and spoken aloud can sound completely absurd
Love is not complete without the other half
Becomes
Emptiness a bottomless pit of pain
The world moves into dark and gray
Is Love
still its name
To hold love in your arms
Feeling its passion
The world brightens and colors sing
Life has a new light of meaning one may never knew was missing
Love is always love
Its name unchanging
Pain, Anger, tears
Heartache
Laughter, warmth, your soul being fulfilled
I love unconditionally
I know not of any other way
