Compassion
A Poem
We all want love.
We all want love.
We all want to love.
We all want to love.
Humans are complex.
Maybe it was not on purpose.
Maybe it was more about him.
Than it was about me.
Maybe it was sad for him too.
Maybe it was not as easy as it felt.
We all want love.
We all want to love.
Now dig
Dig
Dig
Dig
Dig down
To get to a place where
Not being loved
Not being able to love
Doesn’t hurt as much.
