Love and Indifference

Do love and indifference

conflate where they both commence?

They are both mutual things

from different beginnings.

If you appear debonair,

it doesn’t mean you don’t care.

We can love life very much

and still have a careless touch.

If we exhibit concern,

we still have a lot to learn.

Love is something you give

to creatures with whom you live.

Indifference to their sins

can be where true love begins.
