This tale is true and mine
It tells of the battle I have fought
To get where I am today.
I used to drown in thoughts of woe
Not caring to think of much else.
Since my life was nothing to love
Why should I think of great things?
It took some time for me to realize
There were many people like me,
And instead of searching my life for happiness
I could search for a place in others
To give them happiness I never had.
I have lived this way a while now,
And all the happiness I lacked
Has been found this way.
