Do not be sad for me

Do not be sad for me

Life is grief

And life for some is lonely

We walk along a road of stones

Hoping for a jewel

But the road

Stilleads us through

A beautiful world

Maybe I was just born

Underneath a dark star

Or on the dark side of the moon

But there is a light and fire here too

You may not see

When you look at me

Don’t be sad that I cry

Be glad I am alive

To shed these tears

Life is not just about happiness

For many of us there is so much sadness too

But what is the point of worrying

For this is just the way the cards have fallen

And it is never ever too late

To see the silver lining

And pay homage to the chinks of light

That so often break through

All of this darkness

For at its core

Darkness is golden
