Life can be unfair to us, we want to run and hide <br />It's times like these you need a friend, to be right by your side <br />We all have hurt and loneliness, we sometimes look away <br />We try to hide these aweful thoughts, each morning of each day <br /> <br />We need to look within ourselves, and take the good inside <br />As this will help us through these times, our dignity and pride <br />Each day will help to heal the heart, we need to take things slow <br />And just remember each of us, our kindness we must show <br /> <br />People tend to hurt us, with reasons so unclear <br />We cry and sob and feel alone, we long for someone near <br />We seem so lost and frightened, the ache inside is real <br />We sometimes want to look above, and humble as we kneel <br /> <br />So take the good inside, and take things day by day <br />Things will get better, as we move, along lifes weary way <br />We all are special dont forget, we need this to believe <br />That one day things will shine for us, just close your eyes and dream<br /><br />Bradley Lester<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/things-will-get-better/
