Optimism For The Rejected

One day I awoke And found glass around the floor. And I found my mom, who said "He won't be here anymore." "He's left us child, your fathers left us, And Now we'll have to leave" So go wake up your brother, Pack your bags, brush your teeth." And I did I went to school the next day, And the teachers took me aside They looked at me depressingly, And started with a sigh If we can help you child In any way at all Just ask us and we'll be there At the beckon of your call And they did I didn't know why they'd told me this And i went back to my sea I had always thought That's the way it ought to be But then I looked around the room And my eyes met their gaze An awkward silence hovered It seemed to last for days. But it didn't there comes a time for all to heal No matter how bad things may feel All wounds will settle And life will find a way Coldest day and darkest night There will always be a guiding light To wake and save you From the other sleep And you will be Awakened.
