Marvin,
To never cry is to have no feelings;
to never fear is to have no thoughts;
to never be angery is unimaginable
and to always be brave demands to high a cost
Sometimes we have to let go,
no matter who gets hurt;
because we cannot carry the world.
Some times we have to lie down
no matter what is compelling us;
because we cannot carry ourselves.
We are caught by our bodies;
and caged by our minds!
There will be an end to tears
and anger will become defiance,
once again we will master our fear.
The cage door swings until another day.
