Change is something to be logically feared
But also, to be understood and respected
It is in these fashions, we get to appreciate
Our full connective relationship spectrum
Reveling toxicity is an untenable association
Life’s duel intense edges serve one forged truth
And as much as we like to sever all toxicity
We often fear more about bleeding profusely
Or being cut from perfunctory bonds with others
And left abandoned to some unknown abyss
Fear can override logic and any courageous act
If we do nothing, we’ll fearfully die ever slowly
So, I posit, that if our death is truly inevitable
Shouldn’t we risk the chance to live love… first?
