Poetry for people who could use a little kindness

Beware the Shadow People

Beware the Shadow People
That sit in the dark corners
They shout and mock
Where no one can see them

If you argue, they attack you
They call you a liar, a fake
Kindness confuses them
So they feed on hate

They act strong
it's easy when you can't see them
But get them into the light
And they're small, so small

They're all different
as are you and I
So one must know them
to shine the light

And remember
The Shadow People
are still people
so be kind
