Careful,
or someone you know might be accused of kindness
Snapping the length
and advancing for the sake of it all.
Use caution,
or you might feel a splinter of warmth
in the crevice of wood ice and hatred you label as a heart.
Do not open,
your arms, mind or smiles
unless permanently benefited by it.
it is just too much to ask-
to be good for the sake of it all.
Remain here,
that disgrace you are
too gentle
quickly melted by hope's comfort.
Weakness is there,
that one. get them.
Show them what it means to be helpful,
voiceless..worthless.
And don't forget
there's nothing more to it.
Remain passive,
alone,
distanced from that stupid, absurd, completely evil thing we call
kindness.

"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts."
- William Shakespeare

I tend to be kind to people who don't deserve it and then I'll regret. I really needed to read this today. Thank you so much for this poem. Hope you're doing well!
