Good hearts

Here is the thing about people with good hearts.
They give you excuses when you don't explain 
yourself. They accept apologies you don't give.
They see the best in you when you don't need
them to. At your worst, they lift you up, even
if it means putting their priorities aside. The
word "busy" doesn't exist in their dictionary.
They make time, even when you don't. And you
wonder why they are the most sensitive people.
You wonder why they are the most caring people.
You wonder why they are willing to give so 
much of themselves with no expectation in
return. You wonder why their existence is not so
essential to your well-being. It's because
they don't make you work hard for the attention
they give you. They accept the love they think
they've earned and you accept the love you 
think you're entitled to. Let me tell you
something. Fear the day when a good heart gives
up on you. Our skies don't become gray out of
nowhere. Our sunshine doesn't allow the
darkness to take over for no reason. A good
heart doesn't turn cold unless it's been treated
with coldness for a while.
