Close to the margin

Every cell is enclosed in a membrane that maintains its integrity and protects its inner machinery. The membrane is semi-permeable and under certain conditions allows movement through it. I thought that was an interesting corollary for the risk of giving and receiving love.

How close to the margin

Of the membrane of our lives

Dare we come

To open the channels

That expose us

To the lives of others

To let love leak in

To let love leak out
