I look into your eyes,
grey with tears and sorrow
from the Arctic Ocean.
I feel your hurt deep inside,
hear your thunder,
see your rain.
With your fist at your chest
you open your heart,
tell me of hardship,
betrayal and pain.
I listen
with my heart
as one who has been there.
With my arm around your shoulder,
as a brother,
I urge you, to act with patience
and with love —
to be LOVE.
