the good life

i've set upon a worthless stack
of my ambitious plans
the people that i've loved the most
have turned their backs and ran
lonliness has left me searching
for someone to love
poverty has changed my view
of what true riches are
sorrow's opened up my eyes
to see what real joy is
PAIN HAS BEEN THE CATALYST
TO MY HEART'S HAPPINESS
this is the good life

Hmmmm...

Is that supposed to be an uplifting poem... b/c Erin commented as if it were. I read it and wondered how hurt you are...

i guess i should clarify that a bit. i remember autumn reminding me of "the good life" through this song many a time. so i assumed that broken though she may be, she'll press on b/c her eyes are heavenward, and pain and suffering are not worth comparing to the glory that will be revealed... so i'm really not an insensitive sister, i promise! i do love you and pray for you, aut. God's grace will keep you.
