Don't Try And Look Through The Thicket!



In life we have an abundance of feelings,
Hurt, and pain and strife…
Laughter happiness, sorrow,
Because it's all a part of life!
Within every person and every heart,
Therein you will find a flaw,
Some are stronger than others;
Others are a little bit more.
Tears are there for a reason!
They release the pent up dam,
Tears and time are the great healer!
So do what you have to do, as I am!

No-one can beat you down Sue;
Unless you allow them to!
So don't allow it, stand firm and strong,
Because this is what you need to do
You have to be a little bit bolder,
And make yourself stand taller than tall!
Fight the fight with all your might!
And you will never take another fall!
And wake up to the sound of freedom,
In your heart, and soul and mind!
Smile yourself a morning smile,
And contentment is what you'll find!

And though at times we feel so sad,
We should never let it bog us down,
Because all that really does is;
Make us depressed and live in frown.
You have to wake up of a morning,
And tell yourself this every day;
‘One day at a time is all I can do!'
One day at a time Sue; come what may!
Don't try and see over the bridge of life,
More, look to the future day by day,
And make life a little easier on you,
So this is what you have to say;

‘When I wake up of a morning,
This is what I have to do,
Take it day by day; every day;
To make each day easier to get through!'
And as you go through life,
Don't ever cross any bridges ahead,
Wait until they are on you; more;
Let them free from your head!
And no matter the trials of life,
Know this fact about you!
You are as equal to anyone!
So know this to be true!

And when any dragons face you off,
Stare them in the eye, and say;
‘I am as good; if not better than you!
You will not beat me down this day!'
And when the mother of dragons loom,
Tell yourself this inside your mind;
‘I am stronger that you think I am!  
And my strength one day you'll find!'
And stare that dragon in the eyes,
And dream a dream inside your head;
That it is nothing, nothing at all -
And stop living your life in dread!

So don't try to look through the thicket;
Take a big step back Sue,
Forget the dragons that loom in your mind,
Cos you can do it, yes you!
Stop giving yourself a hard time,
Chill out, relax and smile,
The process of pain and hurt's not done yet,
There's only one more mile!
But that last mile is the hardest one,
One day soon your life will alter,
But it's ok to cry, and wail and sob,
Its ok to stumble and falter!

Trauma is a terrible thing,
And fear is off the wall and out of sight!
Stay focused on what you need to;
For you are fighting the good fight!
So it's ok to cry, and sob and weep,
Its ok to feel fear as you do!
It's the healing process, a part of life,
And the end result is a good one for you!
Time and tears, tears and time,
This is the path you will tread;
And pretty soon, before you know it,
You'll no more live in dread!

All you are feeling is all you should feel,
Its normal, trust me true,
And if I can beat back the flame of fear,
Then I say it; so the hell can you!

And you will!  In time!
