Some things in life are really bad,
and your mind’s eye leads to depression and sadness perhaps.
Your despair is resounding, realizing you floundering on life’s path,
your dreams have all been bypassed,
and your ambitions in life appear unfounded and trashed.
You can curse your ghost, and be angrier than most,
start to kick and shout and scream.
But don’t be silly chumps, your burden will pass by at once
and your life’s path may somehow be serene.
Let the anger within you pass,
don’t be a silly ass, just whistle, that’s the key.
Don’t be a pain in other’s butts, just see yourself for once,
as the one person who can change your attitude!
Sure life can be a bitch, a screwy little tit,
but that is what makes our lives interesting as well.
We all feel like shit, in the dumps my friend,
but that too will pass, as well once you love yourself.
Music can make you dance, sing songs that will make you laugh,
and whistling a tune can be the medicine you need.
Always look to the horizon, and see your future brighten,
feeling sorry for yourself is just a shitty thing to do.
We all live but a moment, so seize ahold of your life
and express yourself with all your might.
Be honest to yourself and others as well,
and look to the past as something to learn from and forget.
We live but once, so don’t be a silly chump,
whistle your life’s musical dream with glee.
The story of your life depends upon the writer’s delight,
and that is You expressing your unique self-imagery.
So don’t shed a tear, but look upon life as an autographical read,
waiting to break open for all to see.
The writer is a wonderful character, a bright light who never meanders
and with a laugh, you can express yourself to all at last.
The spirit you can find is there for all to see,
it’s the life-giving force that comes from you and you and me.
