Let us speak

softly

to each other's souls

for we've all known

the force

of another's wrath


Let us give

to each other

without condition

for we've all known

the misery

of another's selfishness


Let us cry

together

comfort each other

and feel each other's pain

for we've all been

hurt too often


Let us laugh

and let joy

wrap it's arms around us

and cause our happiness to remain

for we've all known

too much sadness


Let us touch

and let love

make us really feel alive

fill the void between us

for we've all been

lonely far too long.
