When you are despondent,
Tired,
And clueless.
Stand up, Charlie.
Coz He’s by your side.
When you are directionless,
Unmotivated,
And fearful.
Start walking, Charlie.
Coz He’s by your side.
When you are jittery,
Nervous,
And self-doubting.
Start jogging, Charlie.
Coz He’s by your side.
When you are in your own pressure cooker,
Tensed,
And mired by your mind.
Start running, Charlie.
Coz He’s by your side.
When you are out of breath,
Panting,
And self-pitying.
Start sprinting, Charlie.
Coz He’s by your side.
And keep sprinting,
And board that magic carpet,
And fly. And fly some more.
Till you realize –
The self-doubt, the self-pity,
The jitters, the fears,
And the despondence –
Were all in your mind.
Coz He was always by your side.
So keep flying, Charlie,
‘Til the magic carpet takes you to the very end.
Where, but of course,
He’ll be by your side.
