IT IS WHAT IT IS

 

it is non sense, says reason

it is what it is, says love

 

it is unhappiness, says reflection

it is nothing but pain, says fear

it is hopeless, says insight

it is what it is, says love

 

it is ridiculous, says pride

it is frivolous, says caution

it is impossible, says experience

it is what it is, says love

 

It is OK, says trust

It is here, says relief

It is for me, says surprise

It is wonderful, says joy

It is what it is, says love

 

It is now, says grace

It is perfect, says poise

It is ineffable, says rapture

It is what it is, says love

...

 

This is it , smiles reason

This is                  , smiles love.
