Influences of the past
May hold us in chains
There is often not enough love
Remaining
For us to care as we need for ourselves
Sadly too
This carried pain
Barricades us from one another
Sadly
So often
We do not see the truth
On an inner level
Of what others are going through
So it is we must tend our own garden well
But not let it stop us from reaching out a helping hand
In love towards each other
For are we not all
In this together?
And is not every single human experience
Relatable?
