One Soul Can Change

The thought of death can bring me fear, The thought of her will bring a tear. Real as the person sitting next to you, Growing old but starting young and new, The world revolves around a thought, Of money and fame; until your body starts to rot. Then the world becomes a blur to one, Seeing the light; seeing which of your ways were right. Left-right-side to side, We take on this journey; this ride. To find answers and truth in the lines, Looking back at the life liven; and where your heart shines. So as you read this you have a chance, To look at your own story; just take the glance, Because one soul can change its ways, One mind can make new plays. Pulling each memory back like a book, Small eyes squinting to take a close look, Who are you when no ones there, Who are you when others stare? Questions to be asked when death is talked about, Voices in your head began to shout, What is life, what is my reason, Each year passes by; each month; each season, My body grows older but my heart stays clear Understanding to over come death as a fear. As this poem is about to end, Hold out your hand for a friend, Pull close and know that life is precious;real talk, Pull close and know that you walk your own walk, The outsiders and can talk about past and the ups and downs, But their kind of like the funny people on the side; the clowns. So head up ; feet low, Arms strong; to get through the tough; now row, Don't give up just be yourself, Like putting the old toy upon the shelf, Become the star that's bright and known, Become the star that you know can be shown.
