Life Is Not a Bed of Roses

When things pull you down You can build up a little hope Try hard till a way is found For it’s the way for you to cope You’ll need support and love And you’ll find them among the closest So seize the guide from above Challenges can be easily met Some situations you may let go Courage you gather and move on Another one may not be status quo Other options may aid you grow Roses have thorns, you see Handling with care is needed To protect yourself from injury Hurt are those who go unheeded
