When things keep going well, you do not feel as good as you do
When something goes well after things have been bad for you
It takes a bad experience to fully appreciate
The value of things being in a favorable state..
*
Life seems to be good to me for the most part
So when things are bad, I try not to lose heart
I look forward to feelings of gratitude and relief
After spending time in an unpleasant situation with grief
Because I have realized bad times do not forever stay
After a stormy night, brighter feels the next day
*
Good and bad have values comparative
Both come in a mixed bag and we live
With each of them in different measures
Sometimes we hurt, and sometimes experience pleasure
