and i say to myself - life is good. 2nd time posted.

I wrote this a while ago. I was playing in the backyard with my kids tonight and thought of it. How fitting it is for the moment. The line was suggested by @sharmstro. You can follow her here.

Feeling broken again

Don't understand why I end up here so often

Life was finally supposed to be calm

be secure

be safe

be full of love

And now I'm seeing visions of trainwrecks

and sad soul-less beings

bloody corpses looking for their remains

And then I think of the two beautiful people

sleeping silently in their room

Dirty faces, and never ending mischief

Smiles big enough to light a coal mine

It's these two gorgeous children I live for

They save me.

When my world is dark and lonely and scary

They save me.

So I wipe my tears away

and I say to myself-life is good.

Because of them, life is good.
