unlucky are we
when a contretemps occurs
perhaps leading to a falling-out
what was once whole
now a million pieces of shambles
the delicate rebuilding begins
it can be done
the requirements are many
for the repair to endure
do you possess maturity?
a genuine and pure intention?
are you willing to reflect?
well?
I Write Her 
Are you willing to reflect? is such a powerful question when we direct it toward ourselves?
