IT IS LOVE


that will eventually
run out; the love
won't run out
but time will.
Love
can never
run out,
but people
can. Time
ticks
& tocks
away.
We all
obey
a gravity
of nature.

There is never
a reason why
these things happen,
only many reasons
why they don't.
Clowns weep
& it's funny;
we weep
& it's sad.

And love sits
among the audience
laughing & crying
over the price
of tickets.
