Be kind, because we’re only here for a little while,
and we’re here together
on the same blue and green planet,
under the same deep sky,
born of the same mystery and the same things that keep the world spinning.
Be kind, because you don’t know every ounce of a person’s past,
or what their future holds.
You can hear what they share,
But what of the pains and grief and fear they don’t yet have the voice to bare?
What about the cracks in their heart
where the light hasn’t poured in?
What about these sorts of things?
Be kind, because there’s hidden sorrow everywhere.
There are mountains of anxiety too high to climb.
There are emotions too raw to be set free.
A polite smile is a master of disguise,
even the heartiest people hurt sometimes.
There are those who know a dread so deep, an unspeakable depth,
as deep as the deepest seabed.
There are dreams hiding like pearls within shells of defense.
There are shadows fencing people in.
Rain falls in the brightest places.
For so many of us, it’s true
that we’re stronger than we seem
because we’re going through so much more than you can see.
Be kind, because I need your kindness more than even
I know.
