Positive Thinking
I think of my misery and woe
And how depressing my life can be
And I think of how little control
Any has of it but me
I think of how I rail against
All who I imagine cause my grief
Then it hits me that I have the power
To create my own relief
I think of all the days and nights
I put myself down out of fear
The constant whining of my maladies
Caused only a self-spilt tear
I kept myself under my own thumb
So I wouldn’t have anything to lose
But I’m joining the world, I’m coming out
Happy and free is what I chose
