Change the Sky

Once there were an unhappy princess,
She frowned like you.
She would look out to green grass.
Yet felt the green has withered.
Then a wise man said to her:
It is okay... to feel blues sometimes.
The blue blue sky will soon become sunsets,
And if it were the dark blue sky,
Dawn will soon cast it away.
And if it was a raining day,
Rainbows will clear the sky.
So lady, please, hear me out.
Worries, troubles
Will take care of themselves.
The princess still had doubt,
But one another line from the wise man
Woke her up from her solemn:
If I give my best to my work,
If I live up to my rules,
Then I shall have no regrets,
And no other can judge me.

You are always listening...to my soul...
