You  view  my kindness as weakness                                                  that's  a  reflection of your bleakness                                                        ­ You hate my ability to show my light                                                            ­ while you live in the darkness of night                                                             Envious of my endless empathy                                                          ­ It's  easier to be disparaging                                                      ­          I  continue to stand my ground                                                           ­ I  am  genuine  and rootbound                                                        ­               As  your jealousy rises and peaks                                                                     I  will  turn the other cheek                                                                 I  pray  that  someday you'll find                                                             ­              your very own peace of mind
