When love’s not around Not here or In town When you just want to cry
Lie down and die
Feeling so small To all else under the sky Life’s no longer a rosy pie
Reach out to others Sisters and brothers You never know They might help recover The smile in your heart The skip in your step Faith to inspire you to get out of bed
Reignite your passion Imbue compassion Reaching out to others Will make things happen
The last four lines were very inspiring to me, as recent events in my life have led me to re-focus and re-evaluate where I am headed and what I want in life. Thanks for sharing this poem, Suzie. I'm sure others will be inspired, too.
