There’s sadness in everyday life,
With trials and tribulations.
Cuts into your heart like a knife,
That destroys your aspirations.

Something happens to knock you down,
Like everything comes to an end.
What you have lost can’t be found,
It becomes hard to comprehend.

Life has always been a struggle,
To stretch your paycheck, week to week.
What you can afford you juggle,
Needing help doesn’t make you weak.

When illness strikes, brings misery,
It becomes harder to get by.
From sickness or an injury,
But you just don’t have time to cry.

There’s always another battle,
That’s waiting for you tomorrow.
Maybe we’re a herd of cattle,
Living life in constant sorrow.

A little happiness occurs,
That seemingly makes it worthwhile.
As the rough edge slowly blurs,
For a moment, it makes you smile.
