Letter To the Stars

This life of toil and sweat breaks my body The thought of having to sustain pain anguishes my heart Looking for love in the wrong place shows that am lost When will the day come? Have to be hopeful Atleast I know that I still have to fulfill my destiny The distance I cover with my friends are short Yet the distance between me and my star are light years Don't let the burden break my backbone We've got a headteacher running away from the media They told me corruption can be conquered Yet it's changing her color as a chameleon As I close my eyes hope this message would be delivered Each day is a blessing and a curse at the same time Life is taken and another is given to the Earth Is this how Mother nature maintains existence? It's a pity that all animals are honest except for human beings Looking to live above the dollar yet I can't get the dola at the end of the day They say beauty before age yet the money comes first Close your eyes as things get harder and make a wish to your star When you feel your at the dark end., look up and you'll the stars They blink towards you to give you hope to make it through the night
