When You Are Down and Out

When you are down and out When you feel alone When the key no longer fits When you no longer feel safe When you can’t reach; reach whom it concers When you can’t reach; reach the ones you love When you can’t reach; reach the one you love When you are isolated When you can’t have visitors When you aren’t allowed visitors When you needed a friend When you needed more than a friend When you needed a shoulder; to talk too When you needed a hug When you needed more than a hug When you needed; love When «how are you?» are to be answered with «I’m fine, how are you?» When you aren’t ready for a good advice When you are down and out Then «social distance» doesn’t help Then «no hugging» doesn’t help When you are down and out How are you really? Really; how are you? When you are down and out I see «andrà tutto bene» written on the wall Everything is not going well; I know that But; things will get better Even; when you are down and out

Thanks for sharing this. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
