Anchor

To feel the pain of a thousands,
to see the smile of just one.
Keeps the hope inside me,
growing brighter than the sun.
To hear the cries of a thousand, 
breaks my bleeding heart.
The laughter of just two of them,
starts to mend whats been torn apart.
Love can be the anchor, 
that grounds us all at once.
Love can change our perception, 
and that gives us a place to start.
