i'm beginning to realize that
kindness in others
comes quickly
sporadically
in spurts
a soft finger pressing a warm button
until the finger skids off
meanwhile i am stuck
still on go
i am always last to catch on
but my button gets jammed
and the kindness is now one-sided
giving
caring
more and more and more
until my battery dies
but still there is a not-so-kind hand
next to a cold button
that is not going to save me
