Heavy Burdens


How many faces
pass me every day
that I never see?

How many bodies
walk by on the street
that I never notice?

How many voices
fill the air around me
that I never hear?

Apathy is a heavy burden.
Empathy weighs even more.

Omission

The sin not taken
Holds you accountable for
Love’s silver apples.
