True Gift

When 
Giving silently makes you hollow
Draining your feeling of possessions 
Worrying you bit by bit of tomorrow
Of still thinking about your giving reasons
Then
You don’t wholly give, but lending for something in return
Someday, somewhere, somehow, someway
For true giving makes you fuller in many ways
Of never asking for anything, but merely giving away. 
And
That's the hardest way 
of disowning possessions.
