The Allegory of Man and Love:

We are the Water

By: Angel Luis Padilla

Water, in us,

In nature,

In our emotions,

With relativity to the mind and spirituality,

With the split decision to flow,

Or to crash.

How must we take this poem?

For to fully understand it, we must be one

With the flow of its magic.

Follow this water into the point

Where insanity becomes sane.

It is our love for such things in earth,

And these are my reasons to love you,

Whether you stand ten feet or ten miles

In distance,

We are connected by that common tear drop,

Which mimics the connectedness of the earth’s seven seas.

You truly portray the beauty of innocence

You’re perfect to me

You bring me joy

Hope

Courage

Love

I feel comfortable with you at all times

I can tell you anything, and do anything with you

I’ve told you my hardships

My life circumstances

I’ve expressed myself to you in the purest form of love; my tears,

I’ve done everything I could’ve possibly done to make myself apart of you

To make myself feel free with a person:

YOU.

Everything about you sets me free into a world resembling the kingdom above

Our love is the mere image of gracious tides of an endless ocean,

What is inside us, not just water, but our love,

Which flows through our veins.

It is the tranquility of the mind,

Which takes all shapes or form,

Which sets peace over the horizon sun,

Which sets us stranded into the deep seas,

For together we are our own boat,

To set sail for an endless journey of divine fortitudes.

We flow over, around and through our obstacles,

We are the water,

We are the peace,

We are the twelve gallons of abundant happiness.

We are the water my love,

You and I,

We are the water.
