darling, you must know
i wear my heart on my sleeve.
as a permanent reminder to remain kind, and gentle with others.
i inked the image of a heart on my sleeve,
just to remind myself that
more times than not i hate this soft heart of mine,
always looking for the best in others
while the best of others
are hardly worth bleeding for
then i remember,
the cruelest thing i can do is
to remain kind, to remain soft, to remain gentle.
a reminder that
to be hardened by trial
is the least
kind
soft
gentle
thing i could do
