shannon wright - Life laughs at you

If you think it gets better with time,

you may want to think again.

So catch your breath

between the waves,

and get accustomed to

living in the midst of pain.

Just when you feel like

you've hurt enough,

along comes this tragedy

called life.

Energized by your agony

and fueled by your screams

Life laughes at you.

If you think it gets easier with time,

you may want to think again.
