Reflections on a walk

They walk along the sidewalk,
left foot, right foot, left foot, right foot.
They must not think of the feelings of blank,
they're feeling dark as soot.

There is an inner fear
that rises from within them,
must fight it from inside,
have to cut it from the stem.

When reflecting they feel empty,
Like a vase without the flowers.
To refocus they must focus
on their individual powers.

Still they feel more alone,
when they focus on the bad.
They try so hard not to,
but reality can be so sad.

As they walk along they realize
maybe all is not at great cost,
Weighing pros against the cons,
balancing to see what is lost.

However, they may in fact blossom,
rising from this like the sun.
Kind of doing a sort of 180,
returning at once to the fun.

It can be a real challenge,
it can be super hard.
They can do it however,
no matter the hand or the card.

Keep it positive thy say,
Never bend to the pressure.
Never give up!
Never ever! No way!
