It Does Not Make Sense And Hence Does Not Matter. Poem by RIC BASTASA

been looking for love
and love chides him not to

been trying to find where
love is and love laughs at him
saying 'i am everywhere, i am
air'

been mourning for love and
love understands and says
' you only mourn for me but
i never mourn for anyone'

and then he shuns love away
'what can i do with something
unseen? i haven't felt you
anyway' and he left the place
and the people
where love is not found

and how happy he is now
accepting the fact that love
is not here anymore
that we do not need it
somehow
in order to be happy and
strong.

if love is everywhere
but not in here
with all due respect
it does not make sense
and hence
does not matter.
