If you listened to my heart

What would you hear?

Would you hear the words of compassion that I’ve had from the start?

And would you know all the things I hold dear?

If you looked into my soul

What do you think you’d see?

Do you think you’d see how strife has taken its toll?

Or would you see how the strife has strengthened me?

If you smelled the roses I brought you

What would you smell?

Would you see all that’s honest and true?

What would you be able to tell?

If you touched my soul

Do you think you’d know?

Whether or not you left me empty or whole

Would you know where you made me go?

You wouldn’t know a thing about me

Unless you asked me to tell you

Because from looking at me you’d never see

All the things in life that I’ve been through

There are no lines on my face

From all of the strife

You’d think that I lived a life full of satin and lace

Unless you asked me about my life

Don’t judge me by what you see

Because looks can deceive

If you want to know the truth, ask me

Because I’m honest and all my words you can believe

Life Will Align

Life is a journey

Sometimes we are too blind to see

Which path is the right one to take

Whether the path we’re going on is a mistake

We need to remember that there’s a reason for everything

That we can handle anything the future will bring

Life will have ups and downs each week

We need to know that in the end we’ll find what we seek

Life is not something that has a blueprint

Life is not meant to be lived while on a sprint

We’re meant to live day by day

We’re meant to live not let life float away

Live life when you feel too blind to see

Remember to enjoy your life’s journey

The ups and downs we see each week

Help us to find all we seek

Remember to live life for you

To your own self be true

Remember that life has no blueprint or design

Remember that everything in life will align
