Bad Things Happen to Good People

December 21, 2009
By Anonymous

Sometimes bad things
Happen to good people.
And you know they don’t deserve it.
There are these amazing people
Who just have all of this dumped on them
And it’s not fair to them.
But who said life is fair?
There are these awesome people
Who suffer so much
But keep their head held high
Through it all.
And then there are the b--------
Who don’t have to go through h---
But they’ll get their’s
Someday.
And you’ll prevail
Soaring over their heads
Laughing.
