Kind Hearts Know Not Poem by Sky Welch

Kind Hearts Know Not



Kind hearts know not you say, kind hearts have minds, distant, far away. Innocence comes not with tender blood. Know flesh that tears and infects a kind one best. War brings blood from sweet to bitter, what once innocent, harsh, spoiled; war makes smooth, kind, down trodden. Take metal sturdy, structure; turn to a gun, destruction, fear. Both makes order, keep one captive, but can each deliver from death’s fate.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I think this poem came from a time when I was really angry with people for being mean to me when I'm being nice to them. And then they makes the comment that I'm too nice and innocent and that I don't know what true pain is. I feel like this one and the previous one I did today called 'Smile' should be shared to show people that just because someone smiles on the outside doesn't mean they aren't hurting on the inside.
