Burning Torch
on this journey I’ll keep up
going up the hill and down the valley
stumbling down and rising up
cruel bruises I sustain
because I must keep going
day or night it makes no difference
whether walls of fire or scare crows surround me
my will is to keep my torch burning
With or without a shoulder to lean on
my legs wont faint carrying me
till when my age retires
I want to tell the story
From experience and not from reference
I want to speak of my journey just from the start
and make an echo)))))))))))))))))))))....)))
