kindest

I wish to be the kindest, 

Kinder than you always

For there in lies my happiness

And my love for life;

I wish to amass love

The kind you don't express

And buy them with

My crooked smile

From those wasting

Away and most tested;

I wish to be the kindest, 

Most compassionate, 

Most loving, I don't know

For a selfish reason or not

For there in my joy multiplies

And I feel my heart is truly home;

For a Buddha is always secure, 

I wish to experience that

Kind of joy amid life's trials

I wish to always be deeply kind.
