The Only Way

Is singing the only way to

Vocalize the harmony

To someone else’s melody?

Is laughing the only way

To vocalize the joy you’ve felt

When someone’s love comes your way?

Is crying the only way

To let the tears flow

Out of your heart, bring healing?

Is asking the only way

To let them know

You’re wondering, and find out?

Is loving the only way

To make their guard come down,

And show them that you care?

Is trying the only way to  

Fail in your misery- then succeed

 And triumph over failure?

Is forgiving the only way

To let it go, bring freedom,

To a lasting friendship?

Is faking the only way

To mask the fear that’s

Hidden in your eyes?
