Better Things In Life Poem by Francis Duggan

When you feel you have come to the mental wall
And to you nothing in life seems to matter at all
And your hopes and dreams do seem at a dead end
Alone in the World and without a friend

For thirty years of living you feel you have nothing to show
But it may be of some consolation to you for to know
That there are many like you in the World out there
Who feel that their life journey has led them to nowhere

Though all hope out of your life it does seem has gone
The will to live in you does keep you living on
This feeling of hopelessness in you will not stay
Time is the great healer it does seem this way

So few wish to know of a sad sack of the town
Life can be so hard when you are feeling down
And though at the present hope in you seems dead
Better things in life of you may be ahead.
