look
look at the big bright sun
as it shines over the boundless horizon
giving a beginning to a brand new day
where you can start anew
look at the luscious green tree
as its sturdy branches sway with the wind
and as its leaves wave to acknowledge
the presence of the beings below
look at the vast blue sky
as it reflects over the sea everlasting
gazing upon its own gorgeous image
all day and all night long
look at the dog with his owner
as it happily prances around the field
making the best out of its life
with just a ball and a stick
look at the stars sprinkled out at night
as they shine despite that darkness that envelopes them
making their way through millions of kilometers
and hundreds of universes
now
look at someone
who doesn’t know what the future has in store for him
wanting to end his pain, his misery
in this life full of surprises
look at someone
who breaks every time a big storm comes his way
desperately trying to ask for help
from the people around him
look at someone
who reflects upon himself, his own image and self-worth
doing his best to find out who he really is
and whether he deserves to be here
look at someone
who’s too afraid to break his walls
trapping him in there forever
’til he’s gray and old
look at someone
who tries to break free from the self-procured chains
losing his mustered strength and courage
like a star burning out
forgotten
as if it never existed
as if he has never gotten the chance to live
so
please
please
take a look at everyone around you
