I know it's hard sometimes
when things haven't lined up

or they have
but you feel hungry,
exhausted:
your vision's blurry --
kees wabbly.

Remember this then:

You chose this path,
you had those dreams,
surely (surely!)
it's not as bad as it seems.

You're worth it all,
you'll get support --
just ask for it,
just let them walk
beside you.

Don't drive yourself crazy

but
stand up strait,
smile a little,
be gentle-hearted,
and
hard-working.

Things
will
in time
fall
into place

piece
by
piece.
