Felt like crap today, but now it's gone away. Time to enjoy and smile again.

According to certain law,
what goes up
must come down.
A smile up big,
drops down to a dig.
Wallowing in the dirt,
I feel like a pig.
If I must lose my smile,
I'll lose it for awhile.


Once my joy hits ground,
I won't refuse to be down.
Shakespeare quote,
"the world is merely a stage,
we're merely actors."
Shakespeares wise,
at times we all wear
a disguise.


I'm not acting happy,
when I feel all crappy.
 I'll wallow on the ground,
until more joy is found.
Forget losing it in style,
let me be down for awhile.


Down is like a sunset,
a chance to go over regret.
Up is like a sunrise,
a chance for joy to again rise.
Downs percentage
gives up more advantage.
