Be Kind

Kindness

Be kind they say
All over social media
But why now?
When we were kids
Cruelty was the way to go
Hurt the vulnerable and weary
That’s what they did
It made me mad
so, all I did,
was swing my fists in anger
words were so limited
even now…
you were not part of us
Why bother now?
but we grow up, so kind
but still, the pain is real
and still part of my life
I forgave them,
I’ve set them free
But still,
the shadows of pain
following me around
