Dark Lonely Eyes

I see these dark lonely eyes. I know everything isn't OK no matter how convincing the lies. I remember the same empty feeling when I was growing up as a kid. Trying to express myself or explain how I was really feeling was absolutely forbid. You see I realize some of our youth have no voice. No one to hold them accountable or guide them to make the right choice. So now when I look into a child's eyes and I see the pain, I cant help myself from reaching out I can barely refrain, Doing everything in my power to break down that barrier. Show them happiness is possible and life can be merrier. parenting and inspiring these children not by obligation, but by divine intervention. God knows all I have overcome. I know exactly where these kids are coming from. I am the perfect person to reach out to them, No interest in passing judgment or to condemn. Praying they can see that life will soon improve, That no matter how big the obstacle god will move. Keep the faith and continue to pray for better days. I promise your current struggle years from now will seem like it was just a faze. You may not see it now but I promise you will be amazed.
