Lift Us Up

Sometimes gravity will have It’s grip on you. All those moments you thought Your feet were about to leave the ground When your wings were finally carried By the wind, only to have it disappear At the edge of uncertainty. Sometimes the choices you make Feel like pit holes, and all You ever do is fall into them Getting lost in underground tunnels Looking for the light that Plays hide and seek with your mind. Sometimes we forget to smile When all we see are grey clouds And the snow is falling a bit too much We wish for sun that wont show itself, Want things we know will come But suddenly become impatient. Sometimes we forget how many times We fell while learning how to walk We don’t try to stand up when life Pushes us down , we begin to crawl And hope someone will find us And lift us up, but sometimes That person should be us.
