A bridge among barricades

A bird among bears

Love is free, love is peace

Trust from a tired heart

Energy from an exhausted mind

Love connects, love supports

A shoulder dampened from rainy days and teary eyes

A shining soul in a graveyard of angry minds

Love's upbeat, love's patient

A poem; chicken-scratched alongside notes from class

Offered with an open ear after hours of lectures and lessons

Absorbed with a worn spirit of ambition

And yet there is nothing as worth the time

And everything else as doable

But done #BecauseILoveYou
