Child In Time

Child in time, open your eyes 
There may be hell, but there's paradise 
Open your eyes to reality 
That life on earth is not fantasy 

There is trial as there is glory 
And bitter is a spice to your story
Don't even think that your life is a mess 
For, trials are pathways to success 

Walk on your path to the end of your dreams 
Fill every road with your glorious screams 
It is just normal for humans to fumble
Eyes on your path to lessen your stumble 

Dare to climb the highest mountain 
Even though, your success is always uncertain 
It's better to dare and not feel sorry in the end 
For, regret on things undone can't just mend

Thank you very much Daniel... If I could turn back time, I would do exactly as advise... But I could not... What I could just do is to share wisdom from experience for myself in the future and for other people, especially the children...
