Silent thoughts could cure us all
You ever had the time to explore your ideas to the deepest depth of your mind.
To follow the reasoning you have created to the end of the line
Have you had the time to realize the implications a child's story written in good ryme
Could have on the next generations for as long as that story resides on the tongues of those who will share it
I am curious if it ever hits us in are busy life's
Busy chasing things we used to never need
And forming opinions that are never right
Because the truth must grow but that can't happen with a poison sees
The time they take from us forcing us to live up to the ideals
That they have reinforced about expectations
And how this governs whose worthy of what
From the smallest material thing to the biggest spiritual need which is love
So next time you have a second if the realization finds you
And you wish yo share the secret the world has a way of binding you
Because the truth must grow so instead of speaking what you heard to people who won't hear
Find someone who lives by it and has been denied all but exciaistance and fear
Do not shake your head at him your silent thoughts we hear
Always be positive because spoken words are not the only words that heal
It's always better if you speak in kind
So here to you silent one for finding a way to shine
Light on someone when you could of easily walked on by
I just want you to know its appreciated it
And that it's not unnoticed
Your the kind that makes a difference
The kind who has a purpose
And still you take the time to remind a poetic
Mind that has clearly left his prime that even he is not worthless
