Poetry for people who could use a little kindness

Walk Away

We can hear them laughing
For me, it was a lifetime ago
For you, it's happening right now

They're going to keep laughing
Because we're different
Because we don't communicate like they do
Because we don't understand the rules they have

It doesn't matter what they do
They can't hurt us anymore
They can't make us feel bad anymore

Take my hand
And I'll show you what real kindness looks like

Let's leave them behind
And walk away
into a brighter future
