Is your heart big enough
To love something new?
Big enough to love
Without judgement?
Are we capable of such love anymore?
Capable to be open?
Why do we guard our hearts with such ironclad ideals?
Are we so afraid that we will be betrayed?
I fear we have invented a new type of love
A selective love
A love we revel in
Simply because there is an iota of it
Perhaps I'm wrong
And disconnected from the world
But the more I see the world act
I feel that a shift has taken place
And the old children stories
Of love and acceptance
Are bygones of a forgotten age
