Emotional Return

It's so funny how small encounters can make you feel important. Make you smile just to know someone is thinking past the present. Placing everything into perspective, the long term goal. That is when hearts are rewarded. It is not with the physical gifts but the emotional returns.

I live to make you feel better
etch smiles in your hearts
like fifth grade love letters
we long for love
always want to be admired
tearing down walls
in situations where they matter
expecting its presence
in every aspect of life
hopeful

even though some live to disappoint
can't live with much trust
it's just taken for granted
developing scorn
and another one is lost
another one easily relinquishing to circumstance
made you feel good
so you gave it a chance
hate the truth so you make your own
it's ok to be gullible
so the smiles depreciate
the value of peace
is now less than one cent
it is encountered at the cost of your innocent

now mocked
and ridiculed because you want to hope for it
the love you longed for
now so far in the distance
and you still don't get it
peace is within
it's what you make of it


Don't search the world for what you have in you...Be at peace with self and everything will fall into place for you.
