You meet a stranger and hit it straight off the bat
You say "see ya later" when you never know if you will
It's just the hope
You see someone crying
You go to comfort them talking about Jesus
You say "I'll always be here"
Knowing your own shoulders bare enough
You see someone alone
You take that seat next to them
You say "You're not lonely anymore"
Knowing you were the one that was lonely
You see someone getting bullied
You say "I'm here"
Knowing that no one is there when your parent's fight
You see someone depressed
You try everything in vain to cheer them up
You say "Just be happy"
With images of your parents unhappy
Hugging your younger siblings
Cursing God
You see someone disbelieving
You go and spread the good word
Promising them God is real
When you are angry at Him
You say "God will never forget you"
Eventhough you feel like nothing more but a shadow
You see someone happy
You can't help but stare
You fall in love with their smile
It causes you to smile
Knowing you have lost yourself
You try your hardest to cheer everyone up
When you haven't seen a rainbow in days
People are crazy.
