Optimist by Christina de Vries

You might not believe it

But it’s absolutely true

Sometimes the smiling optimist

Has doubting thoughts too

 

At times the pessimists will

Shove the smilers down

Has them hiding away

With an uncomfortable frown

 

Would you believe it

If I told you they cry as well?

When the heavy weight

Press down on every nerve cell

 

 

Being a person of YES

In a world crowded by NO

Has a tendency

To make feelings overflow

 

But the optimist always

Find the hidden path back

Follows the sunshine

That leads to the right track

 

Sometimes it might

Take a little while

But they always bounce back

With the brightest and most honest smile
