The Cynic
The best way
To measure love
Is not through the eyes of
The one in love
The one in denial
The one pining for another
The one who is waiting
The one who is hopeful
The one who is dreaming
The one who is content
The one who is heartbroken
The one who’s love is a secret
The one who’s love can never be
But-
It is through the eyes
And only through the yes
Of the cynic
That one can measure love
For when the cynic falls in love
It does not hit them all of a sudden
It creeps into their very heart and soul
-which they’ve guarded ever so deeply-
Unknowingly
And soon
The day arrives
When they start to believe
When they can finally
Touch
And feel
And smell
And taste
And devour
The beauty
That love brings with it
For beauty is indeed
In the eye of the beholder
And so
When the cynic falls in love
The very phrase
The world has turned upside down
Comes into being
For believing in love
Is truly
The greatest gift of all
