So what if I don't know you
On a face to face basis
So what if I don't know
What you look like on the outside.
It's what's on the inside that matters.
That beautiful soul.
That attention capturing honesty.
The truth in your words.
The need for warmth,
although not physical, but mental.
Emotional.
Maybe I like the need in you.
Maybe it's because I like to help people.
And that hobby drew me to you.
You're unknown,
but you still mean the world to me.

To a special friend. -Z

To appreciate what you have,
To give and to recieve,
To cherish,
To right their wrongs,
To make them happy,
To give them hope.
To love them unconditionally.
That's more than love.
That's true love .

There once was a girl with nothing to lose
With a pocket full of smiles, and only good news.
Her life was going good, no, it was great.
Little did she know, her life, she would soon hate.
It poured on her like rain, and drenched her wet.
Why was this happening, she didn't get.
Her smile disappeared, her heart quickly sank.
Her once beautiful mind, slowly drew a blank.
Society, they called it, began to take a toll.
Her life, dreaded, spiraled down a hole.
She gave up, she quit, she had enough.
She was done, she was lost, she was in the rough.

But a glimmer of hope, burned inside her, bright.
Without her knowledge, it was making things right.
The depression, they called it, was dwindling down.
Emotions were returning to their rightful town.
Her eyes lit up, with a feeling she longed.
A feeling that helped her, write out this song.

*Even when the light turns dark, you'll be alright
The sun will shine, day will be bright

The cracks in the sidewalk
remind me of myself
Broken,
harmed,
stepped on.
