Sometimes

Sometimes reality isn't enough
Sometimes it takes more than one
Sometimes the warmth we feel becomes cold
Sometimes the shadow that follows us, hides
Sometimes we lose sight of the truth
Sometimes the ache we feel never leaves
Sometimes the pain we endure, never heals
Sometimes our fantasy's become our reality
Sometimes we become the person we swore we wouldn't
Sometimes our fears blind us
Sometimes tragedy's help us
Sometimes God changes our plans
Sometimes happiness is damned
Sometimes weakness builds our strengths
Sometimes awkwardness creates comfort
Sometimes music makes us stand
Sometimes words make us believe
Sometimes judging makes us avoid the mirror
Sometimes our friends deceive us
Sometimes we forget, forget mistakes are made
Sometimes colors paint the things we couldn't say
Sometimes faking becomes the truth
Sometimes pretend becomes an actor on a stage
Sometimes singing creates an angel
Sometimes love makes us see
Sometimes black and white is gray
Sometimes anger becomes laughter
Sometimes I forget to let go
Always, I change.
Always, I believe.
Always, I continue.
Never, do I hate.
