It Only Seems That Way

‘It looks soo dark and gloomy’
It only seems that way,
You haven’t yet seen the beauty of the rising sun

‘The day is soo grey’
It only seems that way,
You haven’t yet smelled the fresh alluring aroma of the rain watered earth

‘This is impossible, I will never get it right’
It only seems that way,
You haven’t yet noticed that by the very spelling Im-Possible; there are endless possibilities awaiting, each adventure exposing you to new riches of knowledge

‘I can’t do it’
It only seems that way,
You haven’t yet tried all the keys to open the lock

‘The night is soo dark and I can’t sleep’
It only seems that way,
You haven’t yet opened your curtain; see the twinkling stars and Luna’s light.
Open your window and let the crickets serenade you into slumber

‘The hard times come, and I am soo alone’
It only seems that way,
You haven’t yet noticed my arms around you, holding you gently in my embrace

You are soo loved, soo cherished, soo adored,
Even in the hardest of times, when you feel you can’t go on
It only seems that way,
The silver lining is waiting to lead you out of the inky abyss,
All you need to do is look up and follow

Take a deep breath and know; 
You are soo much stronger than you think you are
You are soo much more than you ever dreamed
The world is your oyster to conquer and achieve
And all things are possible,
If you only dare to believe.
