As your tears flow freely from your eyes,
like a horribly beautiful waterfall,
all I want is to hold you high,
and steal all your pain.
Every moment you smile,
is a moment the sun shines brighter,
and for every tear that falls from your eyes,
a rose is in bloom,
because in the end you'll see beauty from the pain.
Every rose has it's thorns.
Just like a rose,
life is beautiful but it has it's thorns.
But if you learn to look past the the thorns,
and search for beauty inside,
you'll see how much light shines,
through dark clouds.
So, baby, keep your head up,
and smile,
because you never know how many peope,
would kill to watch you fall.
Just keep the faith,
and things will be okay.

I know how this feels... to just want to do something to stop someone hurting, but not knowing what to do. This is beautiful but so tragic at the same time.

Very strong poem, telling to always keep faith and to not let others bring us down no mater what goes on. Yes, we must all keep faith and not let people get the best of us. Thank you for entering
