The mere thoughts that reside in my mind.
Let your life down,
And take a walk underneath
Someone else’s stars.

Walk through their happiness.
Walk through their pain.
Walk through their humiliation.
Walk through their shame.

Walk underneath someone else’s stars
Look up at their lonely sky.
Maybe then you will know exactly,
Why they want to cry.

They cry because of what they’ve done.
The cry because they take the blame.
It was them who wasn’t perfect enough,
For the one they love to claim.

But what about the other,
Who cast their soul away…
It’s over now
And it’s your entire fault
Was all they had to say.

Trying to evade the truth?
Too afraid of what you might see?
Afraid that you were the one who caused the pain
That settled over… me?


For everyone who never offered to take a walk in someone else's shoes, until it was too late to fix what was broken. That's fine if you've moved on so quickly; good for you, you probably set a damn record.... but it shows you how much you really loved me in the first place, to turn away from someone who wanted to be your friend.

I don't know if I even want to accept your friendship now... I feel that you are just a little too late. Besides, I still don't believe you care anyway.

Did you ever try walking in his shoes? I'm not being a smartass....but did you? Something to think about anyway....

I wish I could make the pain go away....I'll keep trying, that's all I can do.

Every time I try to walk in someone else's shoes, nothing they did makes any sense. I can't think of WHY they did what they did... I don't see a motive, a purpose, nothing.

I see...not everyone is gifted with empathy. I can understand why people do things....usually, even if its demented. I believe the problem is that you let your bias and emotions get in the way, not that that's a bad thing...it's just you're a very emotional person, so you can't really look outside of your "box" and into others' as just an observer.

I am very emotional, I never was like this before. But, I guess I changed.

I cannot see what other people see.... but, I am very glad I have you to help me.
