Compassion

Compassion
Kayley Gould

When you are self-aware,
you are aware of others.

Compassion is a test of life,
but not always straight forward.
It may trick you,
but it will always guide you.

When you stop thinking,
you are shielded from the bad.
Yet when you stop listening,
you are blocked from the good.

Compassion is the center of everything.
It helps you understand your purpose,
but it also blinds you from hatred.

It is your savior,
but lack of it can be your death.
It can shape you,
but without it,
you will be destroyed.

Compassion is a lifestyle,
without it,
you are living as a ghost.

  1. I really like your poem. It explains compassion well and how much you need it. The poem talks about doing the right thing and how compassion will help and influence you, and I really like that idea.
