Honest Effort

Focus on the good

I know I really should

but it's easier said than done

and sometimes the bad seems

much more fun

or at least kind of sexy 

you know, late at night when I'm 

texting

But oh, I guess that's a difference

subject

You know, you really gotta

love that

When the mind starts to drift

To focus on anything would

be a gift

Especially, if it was good

I guess with little practice, I really 

could

Replace my negative thoughts

or at least stay detached from them,

like I ought

Cause they say, what we think 

we become

Be it vibrant or

desensitize and numb

So

 it's worth the work

it entails

And through honest effort

there's no way

 I can fail
