Soft Hearts, Strong Minds

[seeyat]

Trust always, in the hearts chosen to guide
The minds given power over who must hide
Protection in selection, concealed from the knowing
Safety in elder minds, meant to keep their knives from glowing
Those who dig for knowledge not for sharing
Danger in their hindsight, seem uncaring
Only as they blindly worry
Acting in a rampant scurry
True, unthinking of a whole
All are worthy of a soul
All, not only one, not most
Focused on singularity, lacking scale


Stay my hand, changed among the living
I understand, all are worth forgiving
Careless, perhaps I would describe
Some may stray from the task they find
Overlooking possibility, hard to see
Accounting for others, a challenge to forget themselves
This endeavor, meant forever to be
These eyes already, they are free
For we are many, we are the ones who choose
The ones who choose to lift each other
We are the chosen sisters and brothers
Not I, not he or she, we
As one, standing hand in hand
