Days

Pain, pain go away

Some days are good days, and others are not
some days are just in-between
Pain goes away, sneaks back again
making you think life is mean

Happy go lucky go out and enjoy
get your mind off what's at hand
Some of those days, you just want to scream
or bury your head in the sand

You've tried lots of things, but to no avail
movies and booze, they don't work
You've even tried swearing and yelling at clouds
but then you just feel like a jerk

Then out of the blue, you hear from your pal
miraculous, "out comes the sun"
That week of despair, is now joy in the air
you give thanks to thee "number one"
                                                 Pete Yuhas
