I didn't see the world today
I'm trapped in a lonely place
All my anger and hurt inside
Makes me long for suicide
You fall in and out of love
You drink and try some drugs
Nothing seems important anymore
You're nothing, but a whore
You'll never amount to anything
You may as well stop wanting

I saw the world today
I'm released from the lonely place
All my anger and hurt are outside
And I no longer dream of suicide
I fell in, but not out of love
I didn't drink or do any drugs
Everything's more important than before
Cause now I'm me and not a whore
I will amount to something
So, maybe I'll stop wanting
But I'll NEVER give up hope!

I began writing this at a very sad point in my life and finished it as I began to feel better about myself.

Life goes on and so must we all. I have been through things I would not wish on anyone including my worst enemy, but do I regret it. No, I wouldn't want to live through it again, but regret it, no, for it has made me who I am and I really like that person. You should like who you have become from lifes trials.
