One Will To Live
Every day I lay awake
And dream of the life
- That brought me happiness
I go by each day
With the memories
- of that life - dying
Dying
- before I can see
the future
Dying
- before I could live
the present
Now
I pray each night
Hoping -
the happiness I once lost
will come back to me.
This is my
One Will To Live.
