laugh when you find you feel like crying
a smile helps overcome the frown
truth is always best, there's no denying
look up when you feel it all crashing down

good could and should far outweigh the bad
think happy thoughts when feeling sad
forgiveness works best when you also forget
make amends with what little is left

remember to not forget to laugh
when you think you're done, take one more step
the loss can be won when you know that
it looks like nothing is left, there really is
