Soft Bonds of Love

The soft bonds of love are indifferent to life and death.

They hold through time -- yesterday's love

Is part of today's, and the confidence

In tomorrow's love is also part of today's.


And when one dies, the memory lives in the other,

Warm and breathing.


And when both die, somewhere love remains,

Indestructible and eternal,

Enriching all of the universe by the mere fact

That it once existed.
