FEELING LOW
When you have not been too well
A low feeling may come to dwell,
Settle down like a great dark cloud
And as hard to remove as a shroud.
Even sunshine cannot sweep it away,
A sigh seems all that comes your way,
The laughter around seems to mock,
The low feeling weighs like a rock.
Is it change you need, a helping hand,
Someone who may try and understand,
Or someone who will say snap out of it,
Or do something yourself other than sit.
I know it is wrong, I put on a smiley face,
Hide my true feelings, is that a disgrace?
Just carry on as though all is quite well,
For that deception will I land up in Hell?
I know that God loves me I know He cares,
I know that He answers my humble prayers,
It is selfish to be low and so I will really try
To cheer up and send praises for life up high.
