Perspective by: Erin
Pointing fingers, laughing faces
Awful looks and empty spaces
See the world through my perspective
Isnt it different dont you feel neglected
All alone in this big dark space
With nothing to look at cept your laughing face
Hollow eyes smirking lips
Which have burned through my thoughts and through my opinions the ripped
Unless youve been there you dont understand
Alone in this world without a helping hand
No one to turn to when the world turns its back
Understanding and Individuality they all do lack
About my opinions the have something to say
But so far Ive taken it day by day
Yelling at the top of my lungs for some one to stop
But no one stopped and some one didnt
The dark space is getting darker, if you know what I mean
No longer a floor to stand on, or a wall on which to lean
Falling down to the bottom, the bottom of nothing
Hoping that when I get there I will find something
I cant find the bottom, I must of passed it
I look up to the top where a candle has been lit
A tiny little light with a shiver of hope
Up toward the light, my body does float
I see a face hovering up above me
From where I am floating, it is all i can see
I recognize the face from some place or some time
I realize the face is none other that mine
As the light becomes brighter around me I see
Thousands of people who are just like me
They all look around them and see people like them
Others appear and the light is less dim
The moral of this story boys and girls
Is that self confidence is more valued that pearls
So please go along and pass this to a friend
And then maybe their mind, you too can bend
To see the reality of things in this life
To make their thoughts original, and stronger than a knife
To give people a chance when they dont want to listen
Then out from the crowd you too can glisten
Realize that your trait is appreciated best
So you keep on doing what ever you do best
