The valiant men fall, <br />The broken just travel on, <br />The happy smile to hide their pain, <br />And the beauty are all sick with vain. <br /> <br />The ambitious are all on their own, <br />The fear in the heart has taken hold, <br />The time is too scarce, <br />And the sorrow are not ready to mourn. <br /> <br />Yet the solution is around the corner, <br />The silence speaks more then words, <br />The difficulty is overcome, <br />And bravery comes back for the rewards. <br /> <br />As the compromise bends to favor, <br />The courtesy cost nothing to give, <br />The little gift of forgiveness, <br />And no one sees the mother’s hidden strength. <br /> <br />The lonely are invited into to dinner, <br />The deeds all granted and paid, <br />The faithful smile upon the young children, <br />And the emotions of the elders are scant.<br /><br />Melissa Coventry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/isolated-in-our-own-little-world/
