Do you Remember?

you stole my peace,
and composure
and replaced my steadfastness
with love
now i am
unsettled,
frenzied
like a crazed monkey
hooting in the night
you may have forgotten me
but i have not forgotten you,
rest easy my enduring love
once touched by this divine madness
you can never return
to the world of transitory illusion
there is no reality outside
Love
what appears as the world
is tribulation, tragedy and woe,
a mirage of the mind
a trick of fate
necessary to guide us
to love's enduring wonder
and return us safely
to our rightful place
in Paradise
