Here’s a love poem by Francessco, exclusively for Different Truths.

May true love
the pure and simple one
overwhelm everyone
cross every heart
overcome the boundaries of the earth
and drown in the streets of the world.
May this love
in the silence of the night
devour different words
and then fall in love again
in the brief span of a kiss
of the beauty of life.
May love too
this love so beautiful
strong and imposing
become the rebellious wind
and drag all humanity along
in the celebrations of Inner Peace.
