COMPASSION
I'll be the one to teach you,
Of love without resistance.
To open windows,
So fresh air flows,
Where stagnant thoughts lay dormant.
Step through, feet first,
Leaving doors open wide,
For you to follow as you swallow your pride.
I'll be the one to shine light in your every crack,
Until darkness escapes you.
I'll be the one to educate,
And dissipate your hate.
I will meet judgement with compassion.
I'll be the first of my kind,
To rewrite your story.
As your walls soften and crumble,
So too shall your will.
I bow before you and let your pain wash over me like the tide,
I'll lead this one with head held high,
Chest to the sky.
For you are my neighbour,
And I will love you.
