'be In Love With You'

You can be the voice for the voiceless You can be the beating of a soundless drum You can be the comfort for those in need But deep down you know You are you In the quietness of a hurried day In the moments of being on your own Whose heart do you hear? That echo The contrite pulling in your chest You can't breathe for your neighbour You can't walk in your friend's shoes You can walk a mile with them You can even help them carry their load But be conscious of your worth Don't become a stranger to yourself In your aim to assist Don't lose your core In your quest to do good You have to go home at times You have to look in the mirror at times Be in love with you You will add more value to life In that way
