Kindness is a soft touch
On a hurting heart
Kindness shows a gentleness
Even when we too struggle
With all of these wounds
They say that an eye for an eye
Leaves the whole world blind
It also makes us leave compassion behind
Yes, without a doubt
We need these loving perimeters
Drawn around our hearts
But sometimes it doesn’t hurt
To extend ourselves a little more
Towards someone suffering
In kindness
Beautiful Deb. My religion still remains: kindness and compassion ππ€
