Every day is a picture
All you have to do is frame it
No one there to point out
The moment.
Its up to you to reach out
And claim it.
You see the sunset every day
But do ever stop and look at it.
I’ve never seen a star shine
But I’ve imagined what they look like
Have you ever looked to the moon
And realized
That somewhere
There’s a dreamer looking, too.
A dreamer just like you.
Have you ever looked to a friend
And realized
If they weren’t there
You wouldn’t even be you.
I’m sure you’ve seen your reflection
But have you seen through the make up
and your own personal deception.

But I’ve imagined what they look like"
it's hard to find some good poetry in the dA, which isn't about successful or failed love
I really like this stanza. I don't know what it is today, but This is the second time today I've enjoyed the last stanza the most due to it's strength.
This may just be me, but the first half of the third stanza seems a bit weak compared to the second half. "And realized/That somewhere" seem like they would go better as a single line.
"You see the sunset every day/But do ever stop and look at it./I’ve never seen a star shine/But I’ve imagined what they look like"
I hate to be that guy, but you did forget the word 'you' in the second line between "do" and "ever". I like this stanza, as well as the first stanza a lot overall.
