The Long Way Up

The Long Way Up
Life is a waterfall
That you might fall down
Don't let that make you frown,
Because you aren't that small.
Hope and dreams: awesome twosome!
Negativity and doubt: very gruesome.
Hope and dreams will help you make the climb
Until, you end up at the top and start to chime.
"I did it! I did it! I did it! I did.
Woooooooo!"
But then you realized, you can go higher,
With dreams and hope, you shouldn't retire.
And then, after that, you start to soar,
And clouds start to galore.
One second, you're so low, at an altitude of negative eight thousand, seven
The next second, you are so high you are in heaven.
