despair
When darkness falls, and despair sets in, and your world is filled with gloom
Just look inside your heart my friend, don't feel defeated and feel doomed
For if love lives there, then there is hope, find the stength to stand once more
I know that things seem hopeless, and every day feels like a chore
But what tomorrow may hold for you, for you never will really know
If you just give up, and lock your heart, you've closed the final door
You can not live in fear my friend, of what may lay ahead
You need to open up your heart and find the good instead
If the road your traveling on has turns then take them slow and wise
For around the bend you never know, there may wait a great surprise
And if you hit a bumpy spot, just proceed with gentle ease
And you will find that after this, the turmoil you have ceased
Think more about yourself and also believe in only you
And you will find that your life will be blessed with every wish come true
To love yourself is a special gift, that will bring you thru any pain
If you can do this, it will diminsh any gloom that may remain
You will have the strength and courage to handle all that life may bring
And welcome every passing day, as such a beautiful thing
But if you do not love yourself then no one else can climb that wall
To share in your life, and enjoy your time, for you will crumble and you will fall
So push away all the darkness, let your love always shine through
And you will find that you are your best friend, in everything you do
Stand proud and live each moment, as if it may be your last
Just look for the good in the future, and leave the rest in your past
For there is joy and happiness out there for you to share
And one day you will find someone else, that shows you that they care
