He Who Never Loves

   He who never loves
     never makes mistakes

   Though his heart will never sing
     neither will it ache

   He elects to play it safe
     risks he never takes  

   Though I thought I saw regret
     o’erspread him at the wake

Very true my friend. There consequences for our actions in life. We sometimes think we are avoiding drama but in that avoidance there is a flip side that might May bring that drama in another way...
