Journey Towards Better Days

The end is way too far The road is full of pitfalls He has no shoes But his bare feet are ready To endure the suffering Waiting for them all along the road For he is on the journey of survival And the rules are tough No mistake is allowed No excuse is valid He is racing against time And he needs to get there the sooner But the sky is cloudy The wind is blowing And the thunder is roaring He is terrified to death And wants to kneel down on his knees As a sign of helplessness He wants to surrender But suddenly, a voice coming from within Whispers these words into his ears: "Fear not suffering Fear not traps Fear not darkness Be not afraid Have faith in Him And save room for joy Because time to celebrate is no longer far The dawn will pass And the sun will rise Things will come naturally For after spring Summer must come And the sun will shine bright right upon your head".
