On the journey of life
We have hopes and dreams
And every so often
It falls apart at the seams
We pick ourselves up
And carry on
With help from our friends
We right what was wrong
On some dark days
We ask ourselves why
Especially if we have the courage
To give new things a try
Some things work out
Some things just don’t
To live our best life
We live beyond won’t
If we don’t explore the possibilities
We could linger in hostilities
What is the point of fighting
When we could be out there striving
To heal
To let go
To release
To let flow
To soften
To nourish
To strengthen
To flourish
We may feel loss
We may feel sad
But in the end
Life’s not all bad
For as long as I’m here
I will rise again
For as long as I’m here
I can conquer the pain
I have hope
I have love
Heaven is here
And up above
Fear can fly
Loss can sigh
For I’m not done yet
Hope is alive
