Invisible Suitcase

-->

I can you see you dragging it along,

What an awful burden it must be,

It must hurt your back

Your arms, your shoulders,

It’s not one case; you have about two or three!!

Your pretty invisible suitcase

Full of long trousers so no one can see you skin
Sunglasses to hide your sad eyes,

We can only see your grin
A thick leather coat to protect you from storm and rain
Do you reckon you have enough in there, to cover up your fear and shame?

It looks awful heavy

You should not carry that alone

With every step your back looks more crooked

And all you do in moan

There is this magic mirror; It shows love, hate, acceptance or complete envy,

Sometimes overwhelming pride

Other times it’s modesty,

Often I feel like a big fat coward,

But sometimes, to my suprise there is some bravery

What you see might be very different,
But If you really look closely at what you see

Can you say with full honesty,

That you don’t look anything like me?

My own suitcase is quite funky itself,

But I would love to lend a hand,
And with every step we take
Our suitcases seem to feel less heavy
because they're made out of
a billion grains of sand
