Conceal From Ones We Love

I know that you cannot tell what is going through someone's head. Their eyes may suppress the story that won’t be shared. I’ve learned that there are a lot of hidden messages around you that some may call foreshadowing, and no one takes the time to look. I discovered a secret about the comments made by strangers. That are there to make or break you. I can tell you that there is beauty in the tiniest of objects and it is not obvious. I know that you should never make lemonade when life give you lemons, bake a cake and keep people wondering how you did it. I have learned that there are a few people that look at a situation with an open mind No one thinks the same I know that some people lie to make you happy, but in the end it only hurts. I can prove to you that criticism is worth more than compliments. I have learned that you emerge from the failure that causes you pain. The kind that frustrates you and makes you want to get this right. I know that the roses don’t grow in every weather, but the thorns are always there on the shrub. I discovered that a painting does not have a thousand words. There is an infinite amount that no one see. I have seen how fast strangers turn to friends that turn to enemies. I have noticed the hidden smiles that people fight so hard to conceal from the ones they need. I can feel the insults that are said behind others backs. From people too scared to claim their words. I’ve known the people that make things their business when it isn’t, and they get nothing in return. I know that there is always a light, even in the darkest nights that seem gloomy and dull.
