Blessed are happy couples
strolling hand in hand,
having found togetherness,
never lonely where they stand.
Cursed are separations
we force into our minds;
yearning for validation
of a self that is blind.
Not seeing the true value
in being part of a whole.
Fighting for the freedom
that togetherness has stole.
The oneness of all things
is the Truth we can reveal,
allowing a full life
not just a self that isn’t real.

This poem was posted for the previous week’s poetry prompt, Together
The true self is revealed through relationships with other people. Good write!
