Realization


Oblivious to the world around you

Having the idea that you are the only one in it

Noticing little by little

You are in the world for a purpose

Seeing your eyes being opened to a world full of despair

Thinking you are totally different to a person sitting right next to you

But not until you actually get to know them

Realizing you aren't really

Maybe that person will be one of your best friends

Wondering why God opened up a door for both of you to walk in

Two people from different sides of the world

But, in the long run

Depending on that person more than you thought

Now, Caring about them,

wanting to know how they are doing,

Thinking about them all the time now,

Thanking God that he gave you another friend to hold, love and care for

Building up a foundation of trust

Still in awe of the beautiful relationship,

you didn't think you would get

from a person opposite of you

Difference in Day and Night

But somehow, the day and night meeting in the middle turning to dusk

Also making a most beautiful color you've never seen before

But knowing that it's God's paintbrush stroking the very thing you thought would be ugly
