Perspective

*If it's raining for you

it's raining all the time for you

It's a storm and you're alone.

 

If it's summer for you

It's too hot

and the mugginess makes your sweat useless

 

If it's too much for you

you're knees are buckling

and you're climbing

the steepest hill is your route

It's gonna get better.

 

If the rain's gone

your shirt been dried by the sun

your friends are outdoors

and it's time to make fun

 

If it's late spring for you,

you're comfortable,

a moist air keeps you the same

 

If you've just let down your burden

You've no lead in your shoes

and the road is a gentle downward slope

It's gonna get worse.*
