When You Are Most Alone

You muddle through an average week Your duties to attend But even at your highest peak You need a special friend The people at your job this year May choose a different tone But you can trust the voice you hear When you are most alone The values that you share with friends Are leaving you exposed The views you have on current trends Are windows they have closed A kinder friend will hear you out To speak as you are prone But you can face a world of doubt When you are most alone The written word may be your guide When you have work to do But what you teach the one inside May need some wisdom too You may prefer to read a book Or reach a friend by phone But you will get a better look When you are most alone The purpose of the life you lead Is what you need to know The beauty of a kindly deed Is more than just a show The courage of the one you are May never win a throne But you can be a superstar When you are most alone!
