It was a day in the life
Full of sadness and of strife.
You never thought you'd make it through.
Feeling people think the worst of you,
Although it isn't always said.
The nightmares follow you to bed
And when you dream, it haunts you still.
It holds you down against your will
So many tears have drowned your past,
But the suffocating wouldn't last.
One day you woke and saw the truth
Of the pain and suffering that stole your youth.
Something special made you well.
It broke that sad and awful spell.
You knew at once it wouldn't end,
The happiness given by a true friend.
This story is so true about my life and I finally had a friend show me the light.
There Is Always Hope In Friendship
