Why The Nectar of Pain?

They asked me,

How is your soul able to

give so much love to

this world?

I said,

There is a sweetness in

the nectar that

bees seek

for honey.

There is a

sweetness in

you that

every sting and

every pain

seek

to make love.

Do not allow your

pain to make you

bitter.

Turn it into

the sweet nectar

that your soul

contains and gives

as a sign of

strength and resilience

after

it is shattered.
