Sometimes good times are short lived and bad times much longer
If we can learn from both surely we'll be much stronger
You have let angst vex you to the point you cannot cope

then instead of normal conduct all you do is mope

Maybe family are sick or some other distress

The racing thoughts within your brain you can not repress
Sometime you don't trust advise because you are wary
having in mind past situations that were scary

Maybe with your mother in law there is some conflict
Does she tell you frequently that your are far too strict?

Careless words said by close friends can be so upsetting
Strangers might hurt less they would not be so abetting
The offensive words uttered may have been said in jest
you have taken to your bed and lie there grossly stressed

Some simple situations are needlessly reviewed
instead of proceeding you just sit at home and brood

Maybe it's your neighbor who is causing a hassle
infringing on your lot which to you is your castle
They mow the lawn at six o'clock when you're in a dream
you are clearly too timid to go out there and scream

You will look back on sad days and feel it was absurd
but such thought are rare to you when your vision is blurred

Then you wake one morning and the sun has ascended

that old bad mood has lifted and you just feel splendid
