In need

Surrounded by many but yet alone

Sit and wonder where all the time has gone

Is there a way out of this painful place

You will never know this by looking into ones face

They are your friends, family and strangers you meet

Yet you just smile as you pass by, wave or greet

Many that pass never see the inner pain

The chills that come over with every stormy rain

We never show the real struggle of it all

It'll stay buried deep and hidden behind the wall

Never take the smile and "I'm Fine" as the truth

It's just the way to cope and make things smooth

Alone inside but smiling on the outside

You'll never know, so help those in need

Ephesians 2:8-9

⁸ For by grace are ye saved through faith; 

and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

⁹ Not of works, lest any man should boast.
