Don’t believe it

Don’t believe it In a world too broken To contain its pain Don’t believe the lie That seeps skin deep Whispering ice cold That nothing can save you but you Don’t believe that pressing ache That soaks you tired and calmly says It’s easier to disappear Than to see another sunrise We are saved everyday By a thousand moments Of blinding beauty A smile hello that passes us too quickly The blue sky kissed by white clouds The glitter of sunlight in the trees And the unexpected kindness from Random acts of patience and care On the red 93 double decker bus in peak rush hour Take courage. Have faith. Goodness is everywhere In the air we breathe. Fill your tired lungs and believe it. There are a thousand beautiful lifelines Ready to save us. Just open your hands and accept it.
