A Different Point of View

How do I start this, I'm so confused

There's a message I need to send to you.

I want to give you some hope, help you believe

Why don't you close your eyes and pretend you are me.

Look at yourself like I would view you

With all the beauty in the world and so much self value.

I have so much faith in you, you can do anything

I'm always here for you, here to be your friend.

Think about how it brightens my day when you smile

Think about how for you, I would walk a mile.

Look at yourself from my point of view

It is easier to see the perfection in you.

I don't block out the negative things, everyone has flaws

Rather I embrace them leaving me in awe.

You take them as a package, the good and the bad

Sometimes they make you happy, other times sad.

Now open your eyes, you are you again

And in front of you is one of your friends.

Who believes in you, you're destined for greatness

And this friend you know wont let you forget it.

If you ever fail to the see the beauty in you

Close your eyes and look in my point of view.

Everyone forgets things sometimes and sometimes you need a reminder. I'll be that reminder.
