About losing everything you once had,and the journey and right frame of mind you need to get it all back…

“Back on Track”

Life doesn’t always go as planned
and somedays that’s hard to take
Like your car is heading towards a cliff
and you panic trying to locate the brake

One day you’re at the top of the world
and you think that will never end
Then suddenly it all comes crashing down
and you wonder what just happened

For some it’s easy to comeback
so it’s just a question of when
For others, it’s a little more complex
and sometimes depression sets in

Depression they say,is a state of mind
but when present,can put your life on hold
Surround yourself with the energy of others
and a new beginning will eventually unfold

It’s not a task that’s easy to do
for some it may even take years
Think positive and just go for your dreams
it’s the best way to conquer your fears

You can’t keep a good man/woman down
it’s a saying most of us already know
But it’s up to you to take that first step
you just need the get up and go

Remember this…it’s gonna take hard work
so stay focused and you will prevail
Changes may take some time to see
but a new you will begin to unveil

So get ready to start on your journey
there may be some bumps in the road ahead
Invision your goals,your life’s plans
and that cocoon you will once again shed…

    Yep sometimes it’s hard work to get life back on track… but a little determination and a good sense of humour will see you through!

    Beautiful, just beautiful. I love it. Dynamic imagery, well written. This is an awesome piece. Even after 20 years of English Lit, I’m no critic, but I personally like this very much. Thank you so much for sharing.
