hope

why is it so easy to fall in love but so difficult to fall out of it?
how can a glance be enough indication for a heart to know this is the one, while the endless streams of words fall on deaf ears?
it makes you wonder what emotions can do. people fight so hard to hide what they feel, to pretend to be aloof, to distance themselves to everything they care about. They find a false security is knowing that no one really knows them. yet those who dare to be themselves, to care freely and completely are ridiculed.
its easy to fall in the trap and become like others. to loose what you had and give in to what others want you to have. at times where your individuality is questioned it feels as if piece by piece your heart chips away and in the end all thats left is debris of what once was. Thus, hope is a gift that one can give oneself at times like this. it gives one strength to hold their place on the storm, a thunderous storm of confusion, peer pressure and artificialness.


know not what you want to know
hear what i want you to know
sow the seeds that need to be sown
walk the path that needs to be shown

cry the tears that clean the soul
not the one which leave your heart with a hole
dance on the rhythm that life plays
sing to the tune that God made

hold the hands of those who dare
to be left out for you to care
embrace those shadowed with grief
spend a moment, no matter how brief

don't envy others and live in doubt
for, hatred and bitterness from this sprouts
remember not what they are today
because there are many things that they had to give away

remember the nights they lay alone
crying tears that they never told
the beliefs, the dreams that they left behind
you have to see the truth, those dreams are for you to find

love the world and it will love you
don't walk the path towards solitude
when you lie alone waiting for God to come
remember there are places to go and songs to hum

when the force behind your eyes threaten to spill
let it go, don' wait till...
there is always someone who cares for you
who is as scared to let you know, as you...

so wait for a while don't hurry past them
there are words left unsaid and wounds to mend
don't look for the rose, remember it has thorns too
it takes one to hate, but for love it takes two...
