Chains of five handshakes
have woven a net around me
connecting me with everyone

on earth, they say, with the world
that calls out to me:
Love me, please!

.....To do so would really be difficult
.....It's okay to love my neighbours
.....but physically and financially

.....I do have my limits
.....and even then, what is the answer
.....if I ask you: Love me, please?

We all prefer to love
the friends from our own
groups, don't we?

That's why I'm listening
within my own circles
wishing I knew who

.....I can trust
.....and who just wants me
.....as his possession

.....because without trust
.....I can not reply
.....I love you
