To cherish one in their childhood is to give
Must we empathize with our foes to forgive?
Slapdash ideation hoarded in a sieve
Spilled ink replenishing our will to live
To cherish one in their dotage is to give

UNDERSTAND THINGS AND FIND THE REAL YOU...
What do I give when I have no more?
When giving weakens our heart and our soul, it destroys.
I have nothing more to give from deep within
My soul is saddened, thus no more giving.

The past few weeks has taken me to the point of ‘no more’. Somehow though when I am totally at the brink of lowest there is still more to give from within. Thanks, appreciate your support … #regenerating

Nice words Eugenia. Forgiveness is a great word but a difficult thing to give sometimes.

To give is the best gift that we can give
for when we give we purchase ourselves some reprieve.
Okay, I love your poem and had to chip in a bit 😉
