It's when you close your eyes that you can hear endless cries for help,
But you can only see whatever your mind allows.

The world is a beautiful Hell worth fighting for,
all as a matter of perspective.

It's just a phrase, it's just phase,
Adjust the gaze and give none but praise.

Open your tired eyes, let the floodgates swing open
and wash away the dirt and grime of this world.

Find it's beauty, hidden past the piled filth,
and wipe it clean with what tears fall from you.

Redeeming qualities are what outweigh the countless flaws,
yet we ignore them because we love to hate.

What storms come, come to pass,
and at their end does the sky remain.
There's always something in the glass. Life is a matter of faith, patience, and perspective.

What a beautiful poem!
However, I think there is an error in it '3'

"Redeeming qualities are what outway the countless flaws"
I think "outway" should be "outweigh", right? " :)

Other than that, the poem seems flawless!

May God bless you friend! He has given you such a gift~ :heart:
