Bittersweet

Life is bittersweet they say
After the bad comes the good
But how long will my bad last?
How long will it take to waste away?
Why has it stayed for so long?
Why can't I be like everyone else?
Why can't I be happy too?
If my bad had become so long
Is it because I've had to take everyone else's?
Why are my problems always the worst?
The rainy clouds seem to follow me even when I'm asleep
Because I don't remember having a dream where
I smiled
I lived
I'm happy
When will my good come around the corner?
I guess right now
I will just have to fight the rainy days
Until I become like everyone else
And finally be back to the bittersweet life
I once had
