'be In Love With You'
You can be the voice for the voiceless
You can be the beating of a soundless drum
You can be the comfort for those in need
But deep down you know
You are you
In the quietness of a hurried day
In the moments of being on your own
Whose heart do you hear?
That echo
The contrite pulling in your chest
You can't breathe for your neighbour
You can't walk in your friend's shoes
You can walk a mile with them
You can even help them carry their load
But be conscious of your worth
Don't become a stranger to yourself
In your aim to assist
Don't lose your core
In your quest to do good
You have to go home at times
You have to look in the mirror at times
Be in love with you
You will add more value to life
In that way
