If you look close enough
The Christian Cross nails it.
It sums up Life succinctly,
Subtracting all the noise.
A + and a – concatenated,
Like so: +–, but without the space,
To signify that you can’t separate
The plusses from the minuses,
The ups from the downs,
The gains from the losses,
The joys from the sorrows.
Because they come together.
Always together.
Inseparably together.
