Nothing Proved

There are softer, gentler souls
sometimes that goes
with growing old, but some seem to have it
down cold.

You wonder how the weak survive
as you go about
insuring all your body parts,
just in case.

but there are softer, gentler souls,
some judge them weak,
some are willing to wait and see

if you love someone,
that may take a lifetime
and still nothing proved.
