Sarah Kay & Phil Kaye "When Love Arrives"

I haven't watched spoken poetry for months now and then I stumbled on this video in a blog I was reading.

And just like that I searched Sarah Kay videos ... until I realized that I have watched her videos before but how come, I just found this now?

Anyway, this is awesome! :)

"....But love is not perfect and will sometimes forget. When you need to hear it most, “You are beautiful.” Do not forget this.

Love is not what you are expecting. Love is not what you can predict. Maybe love is in New York City already asleep. You are in California, Australia, wide awake. Maybe love is always in the wrong timezone.

Maybe love is not ready for you. Maybe you are not ready for love. Maybe love just isn’t the marrying type. ..."

"Maybe love is only there for a month. Maybe love is there for every firework. Every birthday party. Every hospital visit. Maybe love stays. Maybe love can’t. Maybe love shouldn’t.

Love arrives exactly when love is supposed to and love leaves exactly when love must.

When love arrives, say, “Welcome. Make yourself comfortable.” If love leaves, ask her to leave the door open behind her. Turn off the music. Listen to the quiet. Whisper, “Thank you for stopping by.”"
