Outsider

They are looking at you.
They are looking into you.
Observing your ignorance
Identifying the missing pieces
They are outsiders
Outsiders for life
They can tell you the truth
Only if you let them
They can help you achieve
Only if you let them
They may not understand themselves
Because they cannot observe themselves
They too struggle, they too get stuck
Only if they too had someone watching over them
Only if they had another outsider too
Maybe they do
Maybe they ignore them just like you
I am looking at you
I am looking into you
I can tell you which part exactly hurts
I can tell you where to find joy
But in happy times you call me an intruder
And a savior in times of trouble
My image changes according to your situation
But I am what I was and will always be.

The same outsider, outsider for life.
