If only you could see yourself
Through the eyes of those who love you
You would see
Beauty
Kindness
Love
Laughter
And
Hope
Through the eyes of those who love you
Nothing is impossible
Everything has served a purpose
To bring you where you are today
And where you will be tomorrow
Through the eyes of those who love you
There are no limits
To your life
Or
Our love
So intertwined are the two
In this tapestry of life
And in the eyes of those who love you
So when you cannot see the beauty within
Or the infinite possibilities ahead
Shift the angle of your vision
And take another look at yourself
With the heart of your Creator
And through the eyes of those who love you.
