Loneliness

We all get lonely once in a while
Inside we're depressed and try to smile
A smile don't work, depression gets worse
The idea of being lonely we try to nurse
When it gets so bad we can't think any more
We should think of the things we truly adore
Good times are there in the past of our lives
Whether it's with brothers, sisters, husbands or wives
If we have none of them just think of a friend
Remember a good thought, let happiness begin.

Remember we've had joyous times in our past
so the potential of happiness is plentiful in our present or future.
If we have to grab a memory from our past to make us happy,
at least it's something.
