A Closer Look

A cry in the night
from a lost soul
someone alone
trying to find their way home.
In the shadows they hide
so no one can see their face
so much hurt caused
by the one in the dark
so much regret so much pain.

A person crushed
by something done
unable to love
unable to forgive.
Don't give up
grab them up
for you will see
in the eyes of your enemy
is where you'll find your friend.
