When a person comes to you,
it is actually a momentous event.
Because they come
with their past,
their present,
and
their future.
Because an entire lifetime comes with them.
A fragile heart comes—
one that might have been broken,
one that is easily broken—
a heart whose depths
perhaps the wind could feel.
If my heart were to mimic such a wind,
it would surely become hospitality.
