Could it be that romantic love
is just for procreation
like it is for
the birds in the trees
the bees in the flowers
the animals in the wilds
the fish in the waters
the insects on the ground
and in the air
and if that is the purpose
of all the I love yous
what is the point
of it all
why must all of life
keep reproducing
and reproducing
until it all dies out

Age 80. Cancer survivor since 3 years ago. Work out 3 times a week. Ride my exercise bike 2 hours a day. Live a solo reclusive life. Retired a year ago from working with the elderly in a nonprofit. Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
