Understanding Poem by RIC BASTASA

We are here
To understand, not to condemn yet
Anyone.

I perfectly understand
Darkness
My companion since then
Has always been
Chaos and Confusion

I agree it is hard to write
What beginning there was
To point out the opening word
And to start writing
Sentences

But take love
First, Above All

Just love and take more pondering
On compassion
Take the teachings of Empathy

Whether you end with Sadness
Or you end with Happiness
Whether you arrive at Nothing
It does not really matter
Anymore

Just take love
The rest shall follow
The pen shall begin to write the word
Itself
And then, mind you
The sentences are too many.
