Hey Stranger...
Hey stranger- may I just say
I saw you staring at the sky
and you reminded me of hope
with what was mirrored in your eye.
Along this path's been many
unknowing of why this is the path they took.
But you're the first I've yet to see
to stop and take a look.
Some see no point in asking questions-
for them, things are the way they are.
They gaze into a clear night sky
and simply see a star.
While others look for answers;
gain them from books or sitting in class.
But those who seek only knowledge
can only see stars as huge balls of gas.
Then there's those who look up
and the sight takes their breath away.
The others observe and move on
but, in awe, these few choose to stay.
Dear stranger,
never lose sight of whatever made you pause.
Hold tight onto what makes you wonder
and never question the cause.
The world is meant to baffle us;
it's beauty meant to blow our minds.
Free your heart; let your soul wander,
and you'll be amazed at what it finds.
