From the outside looking in

There you are
Looking through the window
Dreams are many here
But they seem locked in the shadows

From the outside looking in

You press your face to see
Righteous desire in your heart
Which one today?
Which work of art?

From the outside looking in

Maybe choose that one
Or that one over there
But not all are what they seem
Uncertainty is in the air

From the outside looking in

Fear takes over
You begin to step away
A dream that was so enticing
Now is all a fray

From the outside looking in

A light catches your eye
Something hidden and small
A genius you find
But the price is a bit tall

From the outside looking in

You must overcome your fear
Take a step in the obscure
Move toward the unknown
Even though you are unsure

From the outside looking in

One foot in front of the other
The light becomes brighter
Then you find who you are
And discover

From the outside looking in

You are on the inside
Looking at who you can be all along
