"To Risk"

To Laugh
is to risk appearing the fool

To Weep
is to risk appearing sentimental

To Reach Out
for another is to risk involvement

To Expose Feelings
is to risk exposing our True Self

To Place
your ideas, your dreams,
before the crowd,
is to risk loss

To Love
is to risk not being loved in return

 To Live
is to risk dying

 To Hope
 is to risk despair

 To Try
at all, is to risk failure

But to Risk We Must...
the greatest hazard in Life, is to risk nothing
The Man, the Woman, Who Risks Nothing,
Does Nothing, Has Nothing, is Nothing.
