Troubled
Are you troubled over trivia, do you spend your time in worry
groping over past misfortunes you can’t change
are you immersed in the regret of your careless doings
wondering whether circumstances past you can rearrange
Wise up and dust off the ashes of your past mistakes
leave behind what you can’t undo; constant self-blame will do you no good
look towards a brighter future, for there is yet hope for the living
cheer up, beat depression and always be in a lighter mood.
