after all has been said
and repeated with feeling
and accepted with harmony
and all that was desired has been done
and that still desires waits its turn
why do the doubts remain?
what belief sustains their power?
what conviction do they hold without proof?
what slander do they seep
into a mind that should know better
into a life that lives in contradiction
into a heart that knows bitter
yet now sees and feels the other
It is always easier to see the contradictions in others than it is to see it in ourselves… even in the heart.
