Perfect Melodies with echoes


Isn't everyone perfect at the first site

        Wearing a smile that is more gleaming then diamonds

         Making comfortable gestures that seem to indicate that everything is fine

         They walk with their heads up like the leaders of nations

          Wearing clothes made up of placidness and joy

           Everybody eyes them with admiration and marvel at their joyous life

                             Than what is wrong?

             These peopel might wear temporary mask to seem happy but underneathe everything is but normal

              Someone is battling cancer, mourning a death of  a loved ones, starving for happiness or even food

              They lived in a caged world where their is sadness ubtiquiously

               Stabs of pain shatter through the hope and peace, every little joy is shaded by darkness

                They breateh the air that sickens their heart

                 Sadness is embedded in their lives miles upon miles

                  It proves that even teh beautiful melodies have echoes

                  Perfection is not possible even with countless gold

                 Life is a melody and we are carriers of echoes
