Reticence is good enough
When fortunes start to dip
But fierce feelings are much better
For stoking comradeship

Stoicism petrifies
The soul, makes it alone
Converting passionate spirits
In to sombre hearts of stone

I aspire to a sensibility
Free and unrestrained
For in stoicism’s shadow
My mind becomes quite pained

I'd rather have a poet's passion
For being touched by love
I hail thee in sweet serenade
That rings around, above
