Relationships

A poem from 1996

We are the same,
but different expressions of pain.
One receives
and is hurt;
one does not receive
and is hurt.
There is no salvation in receiving.
There is no virtue in not receiving.
They are the same,
and we are different expressions of pain.
Fear makes me inactive,
robs my motivation.
You too?
