Kindness and Weekness

In a world filled with chaos and strife The power of kindness can change a life It can be a beacon in the darkness A light that shines through despair and hardness Kindness is not a sign of weakness It takes strength to be gentle in a world so reckless To offer a helping hand to those in need To sow seeds of love, not hate or greed To show compassion to those who hurt To listen and comfort, not to avert From the struggles and pain they face To offer them solace and grace Kindness is a gift we can all give To uplift others and help them live To make the world a better place With kindness as our saving grace But kindness can also be our weakness When we give too much and forget our own wellness When we sacrifice too much of ourselves And ignore our own mental health We must find a balance, a middle ground To be kind to others, but also to ourselves, we are bound To set boundaries and take care of our own hearts So we can continue to spread kindness and impart Let us embrace kindness in all we do But also remember to be kind to ourselves too For in the end, kindness and weakness intertwine And create a world where love and compassion shine.
