Letting Be

There are two kinds of letting be:

Letting be, without a sense of involvement with that being
and
Letting be, alongwith a sense of involvement with that being

The former becomes cause for distance and makes hearts turn cold over time
While the latter sparks cause for closeness while building up a familiar warmth

The former becomes cause for accusation
The latter becomes cause for celebration

The former only torments and tires
The latter only encourages and admires

The former only kills
The latter only enlivens

The former
The latter
of letting be

Which of these do you see
When reflecting upon how others let you be

Which of these do you see
When seeing how you let others be

They say nothing is black and white
Well then, when letting be
Let more and more of our moments be
Full of warmth and generosity
