Room for Sunshine

Be not in your gloom,
To squander despair.
With feelings that squeeze...
Memories of happiness.
Retrieve it.
It has not left.
It needs for you to give it more breath.

Chase that away...
Misery!
Don't accept.
Prepare more room for sunshine.
It is there awaiting!
Remove you can...
Your stay!
Reject this invitation.
You don't have to lay...
And wallow that way in dark shadows!
