Worthiness of Love

Find your soul
When your personality
Becomes abusive;
Discover your higher self
When darkness becomes intrusive.

If you meet no resistance
When treating someone unkindly,
Do not give way
And go full steam ahead
In your attempt
To make someone feel small.

At the end of the day,
We can only bless or curse ourselves,
We are the sole thief
Ransacking the treasury of our dignity.

Every harm we do unto others
We commit against ourselves;
Every fear and every tear
We inflict upon another
Lessons our own humanity
And worthiness of love.
