Look Around
February 21, 2014
Drop the gun,
Lower your head,
Raise your arms
and shout, "Amen!"
Because you are not alone in the world,
There's another set of footprints on the shore.
Don't cry, you are cared for.
This has nothing to do with the cross around your neck
and more to do with people called "friends".
It doesn't matter if you're religious or an atheist,
Everyone's got a friend or two, to pull them through, in the end.
Loneliness is a state of mind,
Just open your eyes,
and look around:
You are surrounded by love.
