Step Out Side.

You can see endless thoughts in there eyes,
a smile to hide such pain in side,
a jilted lover a burdens remain,
unwilling to open up and confide,

Spending their time playing a part,
unable to see the beauty of life,
worried that some one might know,
or see the hurt that cut like a knife,

Life's journey has many roads,
up hill battles even dark ghosts,
and as many judge some don't ,
many have drank the wine of life's toast,

Change is always at hand,
good or bad it's to adjust,
to right a wrong or keep pace,
we do it for life's lust,

look around and behold,
what you want you need to work for,
what hurts you need to change,
it is your journey now open the door.
