Up

… Feeling weak Face in the mud No deeper can you fall This really is the bottom A crowd has gathered round But helping hands are none They came to stare and judge To nourish on your sorrow What happened matters not Just know that you’re forgiven I know that you can rise Enough strength you were given Think of a tiny seed That cracks a concrete slab No deeper can you fall The only way is UP …

Glad you liked it Tim. Hope it resonates with ones who happen to be "on the bottom" in some way. M.E.
