A Place In the Sun

I stood, all alone, watching the waves crash the shore My heart ached, my body bled, my soul was so sore Life has been so harsh Still young, I did feel like I do tread in marsh But then, it happened, without any warning It happened at a time when I was in great suffering I did feel blessed, for nothing is worth more than having a place in the sun Nothing, not even the great attractions of earth for which many do get a stun If the reason of our coming here in this world we still do not know Well, patience, let joy in your heart, be not in sorrow For our stay here is but for a while Please, do make an effort and do smile Somehow, someday, the truth shall come to us By then, we shall no more wish to make any fuss Only the Lord knows why He did send us here Someday we shall go back to Him, so His name only let us all revere Yes, it did happen, this mystical happening See you, my most sinful actions have been graced through His blessing So much that I realized that none should lament None, for someday, we shall all be rid of this world's confused embarrassment When I was graced with a place in the most holy sun I felt like my spiritual journey had begun Now, I shall put in this world, all that I do have, all that I do own For someday, I shall be judged by the one who does control this sun!
