Sometimes

Sometimes when I see A happy family It quickly gets to me The sadness that must be In this lonely life of just me For whatever sins I may have done, I never meant to hurt anyone And whatever luster I had in life, Burned away with a cheating wife. I realize part was my fault I did not provide something I ought, But the pain was slow to fade, In the misery that she made Now hope has come again to me In a beauty all can see Shining from the inside out Makes me want to shout And, I know that I am blessed. And in happiness I am dressed.
