One Day!

By: LeeAnn Marie Withers

One day I'll be happy,
One day they'll see,
That how I was brought up is not how I will be.

One day they'll see,
I can't wait.
Because that day and on I will be happy.

No more frowns,
No more feeling down.
I will be happy to go home,
I won't have to hear such harsh tones.

I won't cry every night before I go to bed,
Or worry about not waking up the next morning
Because I'll be dead.
One day!
I'll be happy and the whole world will see,
One day I'll be happy,
Because I am me
Not what I wish I could be.

One day I'm going to leave it all behind,
One day it will be my time,
My time to shine,
My time to laugh,
My time to enjoy what I have missed in the past.

One day,
You just wait and see,
I'll be happy.
It's going to happen someday,
And it's going to happen to me.
I don't know what day.
All I know is it is going to happen someday.

So I hold back all my fears,
And I keep back all my tears,
Because I always know,
One day,
I will be happy.
