Anyone making attempts, <br />To get advice from someone... <br />Who has not experienced, <br />The tolerance it takes... <br />To remove layers of confusion, <br />Place in their heads... <br />To embed with a permanence, <br />With a hope to distance them further... <br />From their own identities to feel with depth, <br />Can not be seeking from them a truth to be told. <br />Not to advance their enhancement or growth. <br />Since the doing of that, <br />Would involved the revealing of facts. <br />And facts with truth told, <br />Too many are still finding offensive... <br />To 'pretend' a defense with a dignity felt, <br />Deep within their souls.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
