At what point?

sorenbarrett

 

When does a touch become a shove, a push a caress of love?

How close can grass be until it encroaches on the roots of a tree

A joke becomes a poke at one's integrity when meanly spoke

When does pruning a branch turn to cutting down a pine, does a hug liberty confine

 

When is it a crime to cage a bird, only when our needs for theirs are transferred

Does a kiss become a rape, only when there is no escape

Correction turns abuse when learning for anger becomes its excuse

Control is the key between love and liberty

 

When selfish control of another's soul is the goal

Release the dove it will return if there is love
