Amalgam

We are each
An amalgam of
All we have lived
Through to hammer
Out our own algorithm
Of the heart testing as we
Go what works and what is
Too painful to endure and so we each have hidden parts of our
Self too tender to reveal due
To our naïveté or our cold
Calculating cunning urge
To survive by guile or
Wit or whatever we
May utilize to aid
Us in our life
Struggle to
Love and
To be
Loved,
A curious
Amalgam of
Hopes shared
And lessons
Learned
Until
The
Next time.
