When you feel down

When you feel down, oh so down,
Like king who has been freed of crown,
Like bird who has a broken wing,
Like whole world hangs on a string,

When life has stolen all your dreams
And pushed you into rushing streams
Of needs and musts and have-to-do’s
And you feel like there is tight noose

Around your neck.
                You have to stop.
And let yourself not be on top.

Don’t try to please all of your friends,
Stop buying clothes of well-known brands,
And smile to stranger, not your boss.
When overwhelmed just take a pause

And go somewhere far away
For sometimes you just need a day
To put in order thoughts and feelings,
To be forgiven without kneeling.

Just spend a day out of the crowd
Enjoy, triumph, at last feel proud
Of dear old yourself. You’re worth it!
Your inner peace let be you profit.
