The love you miss
Is missing you too
Reaching out
Is up to you
Build bridges paved with tenderness
Even sweeter than before
Be the first to knock
There will be an open door
Be the love that want in your life
Be the friend, and neighbor,
Child, parent, brother, sister,
Companion, husband or wife
Leave behind worries
Of deeds undone
Time for focus, perhaps,
On having fun
Celebrate who you are with today
Communicate to those you care about
Go out of your way
To be the one who is reaching out
In your mind
Visualize success
And settle for absolutely
Nothing less
