Outside

by Beautiful Chaos   May 4, 2007


If you never climb the mountain,
You'll always fear the height,
If you live your life in darkness,
You'll never find the light.

Outside, the world is waiting,
For courage to break free,
A voice to sooth the bitterness,
A soul of unity.

You touched the depths of lonely,
And recognized a friend,
They pulled you out of misery,
Helped your wounds to mend.

Still you're locked inside your prison,
Afraid of what could be,
Glad to hide your eyes from all,
You could not bear to see.

But outside there is beauty,
Kindness, love and joy,
This fear of pain and heartache,
Is meant only to destroy.

Tame this burning beast,
That set your sight aflame,
Step into the sweet light,
Outside the dark of shame.
