Invisible

Most mistakes are hard to mend when one’s full of pride
No one else matters, it’s just “me, myself and I”
By the time one realizes they’re wrong, it’s often too late
Open your eyes and help stop the endless cycle of hate.
-
As beautiful as a rose is, beware its prickly thorns
Don’t believe empty promises that’ll be forgotten come the morn
Over the horizon lies the sun fighting to reach the sky
Don’t disrespect the sacrifice of those who had to die…
-
To offer you a world full of peace and hope
Family’s the only way we can learn to cope
With the losses and pain that are inevitable
Your eyes only see the warnings as invisible.
-
Trust your gut instincts; it’ll never fail you
Acknowledge your limits of what you can and can’t do
Become someone who you can learn to love and live with
Encourage and practice common curtesy before it becomes a myth.
-
Work on yourself first before you bind yourself for life
Find positive and useful traits to become your drive
Don’t be ashamed to ask for help, we all need to grow
You’re so beautiful, don’t become as cold as snow.
-
I promise you that I’ll always be loyal
As the rain falls down to quench the dry soil
As long as we support each other, we’ll be invincible
But first you’ll have to learn to make me visible.
-
I’ll be your eyes so you can see
I’ll give you air so you can breathe
I’ll whisper in your ears the words that you want to hear.
I’ll pick you up when you fall down
I’ll sing you a tune when there’s no sound
When you need a place to land, I’ll be your solid ground.
-
Yet that ideal world is all but a dream
Quickly disintegrating as it flows downstream
You allow outside influence to tell you it’s impossible
For the moment, I’ll just stand beside you, invisible.
