Life isn't so bad

Life seems so long and tiring until death comes knocking, knocking at your door.
It always seemed to be so far away before, I used to get angry and say, 'I wish I were dead! 
But then they were only words, spoken to slash out and hurt the person who angered me.
Now suddenly it's a reality - there are no more words.
Death has come to get me, to take this long and tiring life from me.
Everything has taken on new light, this life of mine - it's not so bad.
I've had some really great times, seen some beautiful sights, 
laughed a million times more than ever I cried.
Yes, life isn't so bad when I look back upon it.
