Look Inside
I've always been the wallflower
I watch quiet and reserved
as people live out their lives
unaware of being observed
In restaurants and stores
at airports and malls
I play their stories in my head
I wish to help them all
It's no suprise I've found my place
helping children every day
to teach them how to cope in life
and then send them on their way
What hurts me most is seeing friends
the people that I love
deal with life's tragedies
with little help from up above
I do my best to comfort
to ease their awful pain
it seems that once they see the light
the stuggle strikes again
This poem's for you my Sarah
who lightens up my day
with stories of local nature
and legends of the day
If I could give you anything
to make your world alright
I'd do it in a second
I'd help you fight the fight
I pray for you so often
God must have memorised my pleas
It will turn out right eventually
Just leave it up to me
Take a breath
it will be alright
you won't be given more
than you can bare
Don't give up
You can make it through
to see the light again
live your days being true
look inside, find your strength
you will make it through
deep inside a place you've lost
is the beautiful, gracious you
