True Love

True love is not a concept in the mind, no. The mind holds a concept of love, but it pales in comparison to the truth. True love is eating the flesh of an animal, of one life being sacrificed to sustain another. True love is a tree which grows tall and provides shade for both sinner and saint. True love is a fruit tree which feeds any mouth that is hungry.

True love is the body inhaling oxygen, and expelling food for plants. True love is a decaying human body becoming a feast for vultures, microbes, and mycelium. True love is two atoms sharing an electron, so that the material world may be birthed into existence. True love is the force of life sustaining itself in an eternal loop; a perfectly balanced giving and taking. True love is surrendering what makes up you, that it may become fuel for life’s next unfolding.
