Lighten Up
by Alvin Benatovich - February 1997

Sure everyone laughs
They think you a joke.
Meanwhile your burning,
Going up in smoke.

So when your negative
It makes me sad.
Everything about it
Is just so bad.

Allowing these feelings
To direct your path
Is serious stuff
No reason to laugh.

Negativity for sure
Does spoil any day,
Causing undue pain
At work or play.

Life is just
Too damn short,
So take my advice
And lighten up!
