"Like a raven in the night, they may not see you but you see them, upon noticing every detail, you’ve come to the conclusion that although they smile, there is far more than meets the eye. Within their eyes you uncovered the sadness and worry that they hide with a smile, after all, you see what they don’t see, through illusions they painted a portrait with black and white paint, one they’ve grown to believe is out there somewhere. Although in black and white, you saw a colorful painting, you began to wonder how they couldn’t see it that way. Well we all have our own way of seeing the world but that doesn’t mean that all is black and white. Those who see only black and white, chose to not open their hearts and minds, they chose to put up walls and speak of darker days. Think for just one moment, what do you see when you close your eyes? what do you see when you open them? Do you see it? The light? Without it you’d see nothing. Now tell me, would you choose dark over light? For denying light will only prove one thing, that you my dear chose to deny what was in front of you the whole time. Life is colorful, but we limit ourselves to only black and white."
