Kaleidoscope

In this life you will sometimes find Beautiful images,colors cascading But through the kaleidoscope of your mind You surely might be masquerading You know it's done with smoke and a mirror And though you are sketched in candlelight Just try to see a little bit clearer This time you must try to put up the good fight For the mind is intrinsically not to be wasted Torn all apart or turned into stone Those kaleidoscope eyes should recall what you've tasted Not feel disappointment in every bone So pull yourself up and strike up the band You can't wallow round in the darkness again Just let someone stronger reach out for your hand A comforting shoulder will help ease your pain When you get down so low you think there's no up Your minds eye sees nothing but patches of gray But let it all flow from your loving cup Allow tides of change to wash over you today Show yourself mercy and let your mind heal Paint splashes of bright colors into your soul Gaze through that kaleidoscope and soon you'll feel You've dug yourself up and right out of that hole
