rain of LOVE

In a place where
flying body parts, smoke, ash
and explosives are made to rain down upon our heads,
In a world where words like terror, panic and mayhem
is splashed across every news source,
everywhere
day after day, moment after moment,
in a time when we have been convinced
that not just our freedom but our safety
lay in the consumption of our technologies,
in a space when our civil liberties continue to be dismantled,
with women's rights repealed and gun chaos on the rise,
we allow ourselves to be distracted
to debate semantics
to march against
to care who marries who
as though any of it matters
in a time when we cherish the mind
above all else
we've somehow forgotten to think
to really look
at the facts
to truly feel
what our bodies tell us,
what our Souls know.
There is nothing to fear but fear itself.
And the best recourse in a planet going mad
is to stand up and say,
"I LOVE YOU,"
to rain, rain, rain
LOVE, hugs and kisses,
to breathe compassion
and just bee.
To stand up in the face of it all
and to choose LOVE
LOVE over money
LOVE over fear
LOVE over control
LOVE over feigned power
LOVE the loss
LOVE the trauma
LOVE  the tragedy
LOVE LIFE
because there's nothing else to do.
THIS IS THE TRUE POWER OF LOVE.
