If the seas and the sands sent a thousand whispers
around the world in search of you,
would you give them a chance to find you;
or would you elude me like you always do?
If the sun and the stars shone the brightest searchlight,
illuminating every place you might hide,
would you still find a place to creep into?
A shadow where you can't be found...
Would you slip through my fingers,
just like time and time again.
Haunt my dreams as you whisper my name,
and come to me, soulmate, before I awaken from this dream;
to nearly see your face before you're gone again.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Through shadows and mist I see your face,
and even though you see me so well
I run away and hide in disgrace.
Because you can look inside me- see what I hide,
when no one else can.
You seem to see what's in between the lies,
that I spin around myself in an attempt to hide.
From the anger and the hatred, the shame and hurt.
From the many broken promises, the unkept words.
People say things, then take them back.
Yet that doesn't take away the pain,
Yet you tell me it's not my fault.
That I have no reason to be ashamed.
Yet how do I explain to you- the only things I feel is dirty and used.
Hollow and alone, like howling in pain.
So I hide myself instead, I turn away.
Turn my back on myself, just like everyone else.
And now you tell me not to, that I must take care of myself.
But how? WHAT? WHY??
It never mattered before, so why do I matter now?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sometimes all it takes to feel loved
is a tender work, a kiss or hug.
When your days are wrong,
nothing going your way,
but then someone comes along and brightens your day.
They make you smile, laughing at your tunnel vision,
you realize you've been blinded.
Off on your own mission.
And with that single dazzling smile are reminded,
that although your world revolves around you
the world at large spins to a different tune.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you're feeling lost, closed
blocked off,
all the rules you follow
apply only to you.
The boundaries are blurred,
you're a loner. An outcast.\
Your every decision shadowed with doubt.
Just remember one thing,
you are never alone!
There are many of us out there,
each different but as one.
So gather your strength around you,
send happy waves of energy out.
For those same vibes will return tenfold
showering love and joy about.
