The Kindest Thing Never Said

The kindest thing never said

I see you for you alone

Purple hair, tattoo and all

The toll of the creative battle

 

The kindest thing never said

Thank you for seeing me

Failures, mistakes and all

And choosing me anyway

 

The kindest thing never said

I will sit with you today

Aging, loneliness and all 

A life coming to a slow close

The kindest thing never said

I hear your point of view

Different, faults and all

Broken roads move us along

The kindest thing never said

Is not much really to do

Small, meek and all

Just takes the time to see

The kindest thing never said

Is sometimes not a word

Mean, hateful and all

In silence we hear his voice
