Friends,

When the lights are out,

And you feel lost, empty, worn out,

Hope is gone, called in, feeling ill.

It is all getting down hill still,

Get a grip and do

Dive into what drives you!

Say hi to those who love you!

Delight in their saying hi back,

Realize all that matters off track

Is that you care and they care too!

So steady, and hold on tight! Do too!

Remember, little things and soulful people are your only way back to the light.
