World get out the way because i'm coming back,
I'll focus on the positives and forget the things i lack,
I'll leave the past where it is and that's far behind,
I will look to the future and the path i wish to find.
Negativity leaves me bored and has been more than overdone,
I need to stop brooding on the downs and concentrate on fun.
For the grin i wear now shows that i'm not fake,
I'll just push forward and forget the mistakes i make.
Life's a funny thing and can often keep you feeling down,
I forgot how it feels to wear a smile and ditch my dingy frown,
Now i've found it, i'll never be letting go,
I'll keep my grin upon my face and forever let it show.
And if i can do it you can too,
It's hurts keep feeling sad and blue
Anyone that hurts you or tries to make you cry
Just smile very sweetly and look them in the eye.
Don't regret your failures, or let them haunt your dreams,
Net let them sneak up on you or start to gnaw your seams,
Fill your life with a lasting and guiding light,
Stick to the path you chose, never lose your sight.
Pass a smile to stranger passing on the street,
Keep it beaming and show it to anyone you meet,
The world can be a happy place you just need to start a chain,
When you start a new joy filled morn begin the link again.
I hope this poem bought at least a tiny grin,
Otherwise why the hell did i begin?
I know it's a hard and gruelling task,
Try it just once, that's all i'm here to ask.
So keep your new friend happiness right there by your side,
Leave your house head held high showing all your pride,
I'll look forward to smiles on many faces,
And hope love is found in some funny places. |
