    Yes my friend, It is real . Though it is not for the weak hearted. (not you because you sound like a survivor no matter how hard)
    Rumi says the love of nightingales for flower is not real because as soon as siting on the thorn they bleed and cry out, but the love of moths for the flame is the most authentic one because they silently burn to the end until they flee this world to enlightenment and become one with the fire.

    This is a lovely poem and and beautiful to read. thanks for sharing.

      Here’s a prequel of my next one

      If love is real
      It’s rare to find
      I ponder in the deepest of mist
      And think of it from time to time
      It strikes at 12 or could light a room at one
      I know it’s out there
      But do I really deserve it
      I’m meant to be alone
      Meant to be the only one
      Like a gem in the ocean
      Or a diamond in the sand
      The world doesn’t understand
      The depths of passion
      In the heart of a honest man
