Soul Searching

Today, I sit and write Write what I think is wrong and right I have seen the sun rise on days so bright And the sleeping stars in the soft night I have been around for a few years Shared with people my dreams and fears I am just trying to find the true me Trying to see how another man’s eyes see Of course it doesn’t matter at all Judgment isn’t made by men so tall I was thinking about who I am today And how much of me will truly stay Will all my good deeds fade and be a waste? Will I become sin behind a human face? A person’s deed is seen and felt by few But it can also change the world into something new I wonder what I will do to make the world great Maybe nothing, maybe something, I will leave it to fate The most beautiful thing is the dreams of a kid Behind the bright and shining eyes they are hid I try to remember the dreams I once had Before they were crushed by this world gone bad I remember I was going to make this world a friendly place Make everyone happy and fly into outer space I think people need to embrace their dreams more And then one day there will be no more war I know that some people are good and some are bad Many people are happy and many more are sad These things are always on the mind Someday, I hope the answers I will find So on these long lazy days I sit Searching my soul, finding the pieces that fit
