What It Is (Was es ist)

A beautiful Valentine's Day poem, from the German poet, Erich Fried, dedicated to all those who have learned about the ups and downs of relationship, and are still bravely loving, with all their hearts...It is nonsense says reason. It is what it is says love.It is misfortune says calculation. 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 careless says caution. It is impossible says experience. It is what it is says love.
