Desolation comes like some huge gaping maw It swallows you whole, smiles and laughter and all Makes you want to curl up and cry your eyes raw Down into insecurity's depths you fall
But at every tunnel's end there will be light A rainbow smiling above after each storm Beauty in the dark corners graced by your sight Cold winter days end in a bed soft and warm
You have strength yet, untapped deep within your mind Feed embers of hope with the sparks from your friends Above all, love yourself and soon you'll find You're just fine (and there's no need to make amends)
To a dear friend feeling down: press on, you've got this and I've got your back.
