Cheer up, it may never happen ..

Behind the smiling people we see wandering around.
Holding on to secrets, heartbreak, troubles bring them down.
It must be lovely to be free from 'stuff' in heads and feel happy.

Worry about this, concerns about that.
Some folk have debt, others thin, or too fat.
The bevvy an' junk that they need inside their brain,
All stumblin' along until the reaper takes aim.

Poor mental-health makes it impossible to work.
Loneliness, bereavement or a bullying jerk.
Everyone seems troubled by a 'something' in their life.
Children who believe they need to carry a pointy knife.

Is there anybody listening to ease away the pain?
Then fingers crossed, authentic joy will flow from hearts again ..
