It’s Hard to Love Someone
By 
Phillip Hennessy
 It's Hard to love Someone who won't love their Self 
To Watch them do things, you Know won't end well 
It's Hard to love Someone who just wants to Die, 
So, you Love them to Death, and then wonder Why 
Could it be that the Reason was lost on the Way 
You're down on your knees and there's not much to say 
Don't be Sad it's all over, be Glad that you Shared 
Be Happy you Loved, be Happy, you Cared 
The Hard becomes Easy, when you Understand 
Your Reason for Being, is Out of your hands  
Your Purpose, is Love - and that includes You 
So Start with your Self, and Then, others, Too! 
You're here in your Body, You're here, in your skin 
There's no looking Back, and there's no looking In 
Whatever your Future, don't Live in your Past 
For when it's all Over, your Presence, - will Last. 
Don't be Sad it's all over,  
Be Glad that you Shared, 
Be Happy you Loved,  
Be Happy, you Cared.
