After the Love (O.L.D. & M.A.T.U.R.E.)

After the Love is the ultimate freedom and reflection once age and experience have become our memories. Hope is not what we await but what we finally can give. Sometimes we are left with our age and experience as indicators of our success in life. Although even we realize that it is much more. It is also how well we have lived not just in the eyes of others but also our self-respect love and understanding of what is important. If we lose these then what do we really have but empty dreams and empty time spent? Finding one's self is not a product of age or time. But learning to love and accept ourselves can be. Every day we learn that we cannot deceive our self until we must face our truth. You need no mirror nor any outside help. You will only have you. This poetry is written in various styles and on different subjects. It is inspired writing on spirituality religion history love romance and social commentary.
