Always
When life is cold and reality dark,
always look for the glimmer of light.
Look for the heat and the warmth,
The fire.
The hope of it all.
When hate is deadly and black,
always look for the hero no matter how small.
Look for the strong man and the yellow,
The bright colors.
The love we all long to feel.
When grief is drowning and heavy,
always look for the strong lifeguard.
Look for the boat and the strength,
The ability to swim.
Then happiness humans crave.
When thoughts go dark and life becomes too much,
always look for the glimmer of hope.
Look for the love and the happiness,
The hero to save you from yourself.
The friend that saves your life.
