Compassion
Compassion is the true love from the soul
The love that materializes in small gestures of kindness
For love is a quiet and tender feeling of the heart
The light of compassion burns the brightest in the darkness
Showing the courage to hold on until daylight comes
Compassion is the expression in which lies your true self
For without compassion, you cannot appreciate love
You have lived this life so far, not of calm seas
But of storms and thorns that have shattered many
And despite, nothing could have stolen your persona
That part of your generous nature ready to put forward
It is your treasured possession to be proud of and hold on to
To look at yourself the way you really, truly are
And there is something beautiful about giving away
Your kind eyes light up with transports of delight
And it makes your heart shine brighter, it ignites your soul
It’s not a common gift
And yet, it is yours

author's note
If we could look into each other’s hearts and understand the unique perplexities each of us faces, we could treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.
Very touching, especially relevant during these trying times, when we need to be patient and caring with everyone.
