Even More Than This

When you feel lost in the valley,
All alone in your unbearable pain,
Take the hand of an orphan.
I promise you'll never be the same.

Journey with the homeless,
Experience life with the poor.
Become lowly in spirit for a day,
Travel to somewhere far away.

Take a look at the poverty,
Remove your eyes from the screen.
Take out the headphones,
Listen to the sighs, cries and screams.

Is your life still unbearable?
Because if it is...
There is plenty more to experience,
Even more than this.

I have no words....my voice is in my awe!! This is a subject very few touch upon.....and despite some musicality issues here and there, you nailed it! The last stanza is killer! Well done!
