Inspired by a moving storyline in a show.
Sometimes

Sometimes we get news
Sometimes we find out things
Sometimes our world is shaken
Sometimes our foundation stings
Sometimes we're not who we thought we were
Sometimes childhood ghosts reappear
Sometimes our hearts ache and get broken
Sometimes memories become unclear
Sometimes life completely blindsides us
Sometimes people let us down
Sometimes love leaves us in the dust
Sometimes hope makes us a clown
Sometimes we are too little
Sometimes we are too much
Sometimes the hope feels like it might kill us
Sometimes we feel stupid for our deep trust
Sometimes we fly too high
Sometimes we feel real low
Sometimes we're all feelings and emotions
Sometimes our souls just glow
Sometimes friendships completely burn us
Sometimes summer love becomes forever
Sometimes the Universe is mischievous
Sometimes destiny and fate are inevitable
Sometimes good strangers will surprise us
Sometimes our hope and faith turn life around
Sometimes love and light expand brightly
Sometimes our world view becomes profound
Sometimes life is a beautiful blessing
Sometimes we see things in a better light
Sometimes joy and happiness shines in our eyes
Sometimes our souls sparkle with delight
