One Thing I Can't Live Without


I know that

I must grow up 

Strong

Sure

Happy

Sucessful

I know that

the world is round

Big

Contains 7 billion 

People

All these things are great

Super

but 

are not necessary for me

I couldn't live without

is not some intricate knowledge

of facts

figures 

science.

I and the world could not live

Without

Kindeness.

Kindness loves us into being

It is the mother

Who helps her child

unknowing of the sacrifice and

ungrateful

It is the strong

who help the unfortunate

and the healthy

who aid the sick

it is in the human nature

and restores the faith in me.

There is so much hate out there

where kindness was not present

 But I somehow know

a little bit of kindness 

would turn the hate

into 

a new beginning.

Would give it a fresh start
