Analysis of Kill with kindness
The quotes say's kill them with kindness,
so you offer the most righteous kind of kindness you can,
And they take that kindness that you so carefully cultivated and nurtured,
And with gates wide open you allow them to freely pick from your kindness Orchard,
But through arrogance and greed they take advantage of this act of kindness,
Taking more and more until the Orchard is bare of ripeness and brightness
That kindness you gave has now become your weakest weakness,
A weakness they've taken full advantage of with such boldness,
And now they unleash an assault of venomous vileness,
Because you're consciously depriving them of a kindness,
That they once helped themselves too that they picked from mindlessly,
And now they act surprised to see,
That there's nothing left to pick from the Orchards kindest kindness tree,
They are left hungry craving the fondness of The Orchards kindness,
Which it gave so willingly so blindly so kindly, The kindness Orchard will one day Bloom again divinely,
But the gates will never again sit open idly,
They will only open to guests that are chosen much more wisely.
