The Hope of Loving

I love searching poems from web since I was thirteen. When I am attracted to one of the great poems, I used to write them in my diary. This is from Daniel Ladinsky .

What keeps us alive?
What allows us to endure?

I think it is The Hope of Loving, or being loved.

I heard a fable once about the sun going on a journey to find its source, and how the moon wept without her lover's warm gaze. We weep when light does not reach our hearts. We wither like fields if someone close does not rain their kindness upon us.
