Show It To Me Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Show it to me and with no risk...
That pride that you keep inside.
Show it to me and with no risk...
That you know about respect to give.
Show it to me and with no risk...
A dignity that you want me to believe.
And identity...
With you kept to keep.

Show it to me and with no risk.
Sincerity felt for another.
Show it to me and with no risk.
You care and it's always there.
Show it to me and with no risk.
You're not living to be self-centered or selfish.
Show it to me and with no risk.
You are living not to profit but benefit...
Others.

Show it to me that you think of others.
Show me that your druthers are of others.
Show me that your doings are for others.
Show this to me knowing there's no risk.
