The Light that Shines.


from the ABC set Thoughts and Whispers.

Why are some people far too blind to see what I can see
The light that shines, the smile that warms the heart that beats in me
Why can't some people realise that some of us are scarred
And that it takes a little more to make us drop our guard

Why do some people just give up on those with wounds to heal
Who need some extra effort in a friendship true and real
Why will some people freely hurt that soul so full of heart
And never blink an eye as someones life is torn apart

Why have some people once called friends now left without a trace
Do they not care that pain and tears now mar that lovely face
Why is it that I cannot shake them all to make them see
The Light that shines. The smile that warms the heart that beats in me.
