Give It Away

GIVE IT AWAY


Love that is hoarded moulds at last

Until we know some day

The only thing we ever have

Is what we give away.

-

And kindness that is never used

But hidden all alone

Will slowly harden 'till it is

As hard as any stone.

-

It is the things we always hold

That we will lose some day;

The only things we ever keep

Are what we give away.
