Changing the Course of Fate

No glamor, no riches or happiness I foresee in my future and often I asked myself with truthfulness If I had tried and climbed over that gate I could have changed the course of fate, and living life I carried his dream inside until all came crushing down... even in night dreams stars seemed to gleam! Nothing was given to me and in those times of need I used some resources I had trusting in prayer and waited to see roses bloom along the path that once was sunless... did anyone ever ask me if I was afraid? A house built with stroms in mind will withstand winter storms and summer storms on an open ranch I was that one being lashed by the strongest wind and stood firm withouth being shifted a single inch.
