Can You

Can you find beauty, in things not pleasant to the eyes? Can you be nice, to things you don't recognize? Can you find sunshine, on a rainy day? Can you remain silent, when you have things to say? Can you fight, when you're tired to the bone. Can you call it quits? leave well enough alone. Can you be ok, in the lonely moments? Can you stay strong, in the midst of disappointments? Can you take, it all in stride? Can you in the face of chaos? pocket your pride. Can you wear a smile; when you want to cry? Can you be ok, in the blink of an eye? Can you believe, in things you can't, see? Can you hear, the music if it's off key? Can you really expect, tomorrow to come? Can you still feel pain? when you're numb. Can you get up, and do what needs to be done, Can you figure out, when it's time to cut and run. Can you still believe, when you know there is no way out? Can your opinion change, when you know beyond a shadow of a doubt? Can you be kind, to someone you have taking a dislike to? Can you help someone, in worse shape than you? CAN YOU??
