Whole Life

Centered on a misleading dream
My life took turns that may now seem mean
Changes in many ways that came so quick
Leaving me to ponder what is it makes me tick

Losses accumulate when you can no longer toil
In your past profession after injuries embroil
Your life with constraints never given thought before
And adapting defeats some you thought were friends or more

Time lumbers on and so we find ourselves new ways
To take on tasks and learn to cope with the days
When pain doth grip and squeeze your mind
Sure is true many people are more than kind

Giving freely of their time and helping out
Showing you there are still good friends about
Fairweather went and the seething storms blew away
All those that didnt have the grip to stay

Such losses we feel for a while it is true
But in the end I think there's no need to be blue
For from the wreckage of your past life
Step forth new strengths that bring you might

With which to face those episodes of pain
Knowing umbrellas here shield you from that acid rain
So hold on to the you inside for there is still
A whole life to be had just so long as you keep the will
