Pull Yourself Up From the Bootstraps

by FireFly - Libra

I’m in my doldrums- 
You don’t have to be-
You can share with me your goodtime-

It’s not over-
25 years says so-
And at least 25 more to go-
You hear me-
Walk on, walk on-

Its hard right now-
Pandora’s Box, is open-
It will pass, and everything that hurts-
Will be gone-
Just now, each day is better then the last-
Strength inside of you-
Strength inside of you-
You’ll find it-
It will bring you up from the abyss-
And a mistake, or lost love-
Will never be missed-

Walk on, Walk on-
Remember, all this shit-
Is dress rehearsal for all things to come-
Just be strong for yourself-
The ones around you too-
Family and loved ones-
Who see the true beauty in you-

And never will they forget you-
Remember nobody else-
Will fill your shoes...except you-

Reason for writing:

    C'mon, cheer the fuck up, me.
