Human Gems

 

“I hadn’t told them about you, but they saw you bathing in my eyes.
I hadn’t told them about you, but they saw you in my written words.
The perfume of love cannot be concealed.” ~ Nizar Qabbani

“the perfume of love cannot be concealed,”

…nor its fragrance returned
and resealed in its vial.

The human being is a facetted gem
that cannot contain it’s true light.

Those who love genuinely, divinely,
emanate their clarity, color, and cut.

  1. “the perfume of love cannot be concealed,”
    …nor its fragrance returned
    and resealed in its vial. “

    Because love is a gift, not to be returned nor contained. It gives of itself freely..
