Every One of US

Every One of Us

Isn't it interesting
The way even the most put together of us
Doubt
Worry
Forget to trust?

Sometimes the ones who seem the brightest
Are just the best at hiding the darkness.

Have you ever thought
Someone who had it all figured out
Questioned
Wondered
Cried themselves to sleep at night?

Just because the outside looks polished
Doesn't mean they're not afraid.

What if we knew
The inner depth of a person
Their fear
Their heart
Their innermost longings?

They say don't judge a book by it's cover
But we are all so much more than books.

What if just for one moment
We shared ALLLLL the good things we see
Love
Admiration
Strength of Heart?

Maybe we could make a difference.
Maybe we could change a life.

It is time for us to open our eyes!
Every one of us is struggling
Hurting
Longing
Wishing to truly know we matter.

Every one of us can change the course
Maybe now's the time.
