when it's all too hard
crawl into bed
pull the covers over you head
when it's all too hard
immerse yourself in a hot
bubble bath by candle light
when it's all too hard
try to sleep to the soft notes
of a ginger puss purring

when it's still too hard
pick up a phone
you will feel better
when you hear his voice
yes - a hotl bubble bath or hearing a friendly voice.. both helps...

Beautifully penned on a topic that hits me straight in the heart (apart from the 'call him' stanza). Wonderful poem full of great advice!
ReplyDeleteSometimes the sound of someone's voice makes all the difference!
