It appears
that all I needed
was a place
to love others from

A better heart
A better home
and an abundance
of compassion

The more I open
this door I lock
The more I can
unlock it

The more I risk
what I don't really own
the more I gain
what I don't really have

It appears all I need
is to not want anything
except the courage
not to need
