We all get through

Things can get better,
things can get worse,
i see life as a blessing,
it used to be a curse.
I've learnt from my life,
i hate the things I've done,
there were times where i escaped,
and thought that i could run.
But then it sank in,
i have to face the truth,
i could block out these burdens,
forget about my youth.
It's all in the past,
and it's time to forget,
that I'm lonely
but i have people left.
people that love me,
and would be happy to see me smile,
so I'll go on living,
because i know it's worth while
