Life can go so swimmingly well and then crash, down comes the biggest wave you’ve ever seen, you didn’t expect that one and it takes the wind out of your sails. But hey, this is what you’ve got to do, you’ve got to get back up again, get back on track, baby step after baby step and when you look back, you will have surely come along way. This next poem is inspired by just that. Say “Yes, I Can Do This”.
“Yes, I Can Do This”
You’ve got to push yourself,
as much as you can.
Even though you don’t feel it,
it’s a sure good plan.
No lying on the couch,
thinking so low.
You’ve got to get up,
no matter how slow.
The mind sees red,
and gets tangled inside.
To loosen the knots,
get out, don’t hide.
I know it’s hard,
I know it’s tough.
It’s the last thing you want,
when feeling rough.
But you’ve got to move,
you’ve got to believe.
Don’t waste your talents,
You’ve so much to achieve.
Look in the mirror,
and shout out loud,
“Yes, I can do this”
Shout it loud and proud.
