Rerun

I have this thing about not feeling good about leaving my blog on a post I did when I was sad or bugged about something. I don't have a cute or funny story to tell tonight though that will bump the last post out of top spot. I'm honestly just kind of worn out and blah at the moment. I was thinking today about a poem I wrote and posted here. If I do say so myself, it's one of my favourite things I've ever created. I think about it when I need someone to tell me that things are okay and they will turn out and I'm doing the right thing. Excuse me now while I go give myself a pep talk.

The original post is here.

Don't cry my darling
Just put those tears away
You're stronger than you know
And getting stronger every day

You've walked a long cold mile
In shoes too big for your feet
Just close your eyes and rest now
Proud you followed your heartbeat

Don't look at the stars for answers
Or down at the ground in despair
The hero in every battle
Learns that life is never fair

Don't cry my darling
Though your body and soul grow weary
I promise that soon you will be dancing
And your future will shine quite clearly

My darling
My darling
Your future will shine quite clearly
