The Cracks in A Broken Heart Are a Door.

Observe.  When you see madness, don’t despair, observe.

When you see violence, don’t despair, observe.

It will break your heart, but not your hope.

When you see need, respond, as you can no longer observe.

For it is that response that makes you human,

Standing above madness and violence.

Hope.

For it is not power that gives you strength, for power is sought by the weak.

It is love that makes greatness, and the breaking of a heart that observes that enlarges it,

Enabling  room to admit others.

Observe and know where your strength truly lies,

Instead of weeping over your broken heart,

Admit others through the cracks.

The love thus generated gives you strength.

The cracks in a broken heart let in light and love.

 The cracks in a broken heart are a door.

Welcoming new love.
