That Woman You Know

Do you see that woman? Hidden behind the dorky exterior Still shines with radiance and grace Do you see that woman? Hiding behind her silence Still has many stories to tell Do you see that woman? Hidden underneath her skin and clothes  Still fiery and full of spunk Do you see that woman? Hiding behind her shyness  Yet has a wicked sense of humour Do you see that woman? Hidden behind the tired eyes and smile And has stories of daily courageous battles  Do you see that woman? Hidden behind her screen With a heart as deep as the ocean Do you see that woman? Hidden behind her insecurities Still a champion for the meek Do you see that woman? That sits on her dark windows But dreams about the stars Do you see that woman? That looks back from the mirror  She's too much, too little,  Too guarded, too crazy  Too mad and too awesome  In a life of constant storm She is the ray of light. 

On Isolation

Trapped inside our lives We’re forced to introspect The meaning of life We lead so trapped and circumspect   The value of today Never seemed so vital before The worries of tomorrow So futile to explore   It’s a battle inside Of hope and despair Will humanity be awakened Or be broken beyond repair   Will love find us And friendships bring new meaning Or will social isolation Become a habit that needs weaning   The uncertainty of change Is teaching me how to cope   For where there is life There will always be hope
