Life is smoke and mirrors.
I saw the tears of a clown,
And knew the laughter was fake.
It showed me sadness can come
With a smile on your face.

In life we will look back,
Wishing we did this,
And we didn’t do that.
But one regret,
That will never play on your mind,
Is in those moments when
You chose to be kind.

In life she will almost suffer
Each and every day.
Yet she will show she’s a warrior
In every single way.

With hurt in her heart
She’ll get things done.
Because thats what it means
To be a woman.

Isn’t it strange,
How we expect things to change
When we do nothing to change.

Pay attention to what is said,
It’s not always in the word.
Anyone can listen,
But not everyone is heard.

Sometimes it’s better to walk away,
Holding your head high above the ground.
Sometimes it’s the silence,
That makes the loudest sound.

In the beginning it was magic,
With that came deceit.
Then the mask came off
And finally, you were seen.
