It's A Sad & Beautiful World (for Betsy Brown)

you are not alone
in the emptiness you felt
in the cards you've been dealt
living through life's in-betweens
empty spaces with other human beings

you are not alone
accepting the nothingness is not dealing
let go, carry on & start the healing
you can't change the past & the things that went wrong
individuality, empowerment & the art of being strong

you are not alone
respect is a form of love, surrender all your wants
surround yourself with good people, understand why they care
nothing can take the place or fill up that empty space
remember to preserve the optimism, hold yourself dear

you are not alone
you are still growing as a person, learning to take care of yourself
learn from your fear & pain, both are teachers unlike anything else
loving some one who is your friend, knowing where they begin & end
always live for others & let others live for you

you are not alone
making yourself useful, oneness of empowerment, use what god gave you
seek a world of facts & truths, you with find goodness when you look through your blues
permit yourself to feel good again, even when, dealing with loss & lonesomeness
even the weak survive, it's just a difference in the quality of existence
