The First Step

By looking at the “facade” you cannot judge.
And you can’t deduce who is “imperfect.”
Better not crush and “mask” your emotions. 
Encounter the poignant humiliations bravely.
Explore answers for “cracked” and “broken” relations. 
Check once if any of your actions are “flawed.”
Give up the “torn” and trivial beliefs.
Build your relations on the pillars of hope and courage. 
Never expect that somebody would take the charge.
Come out of the “illusion” and take the first step to rebuild.
