To risk a heart
is to forfeit sanity
To give without wanting
is to be as naïve as the young
To love without consequence or fear
is to be reckless
To be in need of an embrace
is to show weakness
To be sincere and honest in all action
is to allow opportunity for deception
To live without risking
is merely existing!
is to forfeit sanity

To be in need of an embrace

To be sincere and honest in all action

To live without risking
