Life is Glorious

I hate this
Life is hell
My grandma has died
I can't keep a girlfriend
I am such a loser
I don't have enough guts to ask the girl I really love out

I might as well just quit
I hate life
I bet death would be more fair
So I try suicide

I set up the rope
Stand on a chair
Tie the rope around my neck
And tip the chair

Pain
Pain like I have never experienced
Tears well in my eyes
I thought it would be quicker than this
I thought there would be less pain this way
How wrong I was

Of course my survival instinct had to kick in
Making me fight my seemingly sound mind decision
I struggle and struggle
Using all the energy I have
I see dark spots dancing before me
And then nothing

...

I see a dark hooded figure
It turns to me
With a raspy voice it asks
"Why are you here?"

I answer with a lack luster tone
"Life is hell, and unfair, I couldn't stand it any longer"
It responds
"Well you have to power through it, when you awaken you will thank me"

...

Relief
Glorious relief
I fill myself with glorious air
As I breath in through my nose
I smell something divine
As I open my eyes and I see the girl I love

It has been six months since that day
I will never let myself drop to that low again
I see the truth in life now
I see the light and the dark
No longer do I see just the dark
And I now have a girlfriend

I do my best to show others the path of light
I do my best to show others it is them that determines how their life goes

I love life
Life is Glorious
