Open My Eyes

Life is like a poker game, not knowing what cards you\'re dealt,
How do I smile when pain is what I felt,
Why do those look so highly upon me, when its hard for me to think highly of myself?

I fake it until I make it,
But if I do not make it, the progress I made who takes it?
It seems like life is an up hill battle I am facing,
Fighting for a chance to just see what is my destination,

I was once a lost soul wandering through life seeking life\'s guidance,
Not knowing the guidance is not from those who claim to survive it,
But rather direction and guidance is in those that find it,

Once I opened my eyes and understood the world through my perception,
I understood that life is what I make it,not another mans depiction,
Once I opened my eyes, I was no longer lost
Because I now follow my heart and not what I was taught.
