Chin Up Poem by D Loveday Morris

CHIN UP

Chin up Girl,
dont let the naysayers get you down
Get out of bed, shampoo, condition your hair and wipe away that frown
Chin up young man, old man grandmas and grandpa
The journey may be a thousand miles but heart will get you far

Chin up wild one
You don't need to be tame
Stay energised, don't be victimized, realize you don't need to carry other people's shame
Chin up sad one, depressed one, whose music seems to have stopped
Get that rope from around your neck, your life means a hell of a lot

Chin up shy one
Ignore the lies and speak your truths,
The words you speak when you've found your voice will nullify the moot
Chin up lonesome one, broken hearted ones, I can see what you are going through
But don't ever let your past dictate what you can do

Chin up you, yes you!
Why are you so surprised?
The authority to be, lies within you and me
So, chin up, so you can better visualise
See your potential is maximized
