felt love so monumental

felt hate so detrimental

laughed out in the rain

laughed as If I’m insane

 looked into lifeless eyes

 listened to forlorn sighs

felt the fragmented heart

felt the void of being apart

felt the sting of wicked tongues

 heard the songs of the forever young

danced freely without a care

seen the crippling of despair

seen changes with just a smile

been the bottom of a heavy pile

dreamed the unreachable dream

seen the faith that can redeem

seen people who have lost control

seen actions that take a heavy toll

seen total chaos restored to calm

felt the peace offered in a single palm

watched the calloused turn their back

watched the humble take up their slack

felt the sorrow of people down and out

felt the frustration of those who shout

watched the special ones who cope

seen them plant the seed of hope

felt the excitement of something new

felt the encouragement of love renewed
