Highs and Lows

When you are standing there so cold and lonely do not fret
For there are yet...,

                                 Times to come.

                                                             Ones that could raise your spirits high,

And some that will break you at the toe.
So,You should know,
There is only one way to go,

                                                 when you are standing there on the bare bottom,

Just remember that you came from the top,
And when think you cannot drop...,

                                                              Anymore,
                                                                               There is a door, 

The portal of faith and friendship.
If you have faith in the Lord to allow him to lift you out of your hardship

and the ability to befriend anyone along the corridor of despair,
Then maybe there is a way out by baring those burdens and to share,

on his wings to rise to the top once more. 
yet again clinging to those that you adore.
