Me against the world

I do not think I mean
to be tough;
I guess I'd just love to seem
brave enough.

Remaining a heart still soft
and learning the ways to be kind.
Never caring about the cost
of what is for the sake of this mind.

Because it's me against the world
and I cannot simply sit and wait
until times are no longer cold;
because mine forever is this weight.
