Circle of Life

Circle of LIFE

           The circle of Life is a mystery on its own,
           It teaches me where I do not belong.
           You see, it intrigues me, to be faithful to my course,
           And have no remorse.

          My life is a reflection of my mother,
          It was like reliving it in a mirror,
          With all its terror.
         She endures the suffering of an unfaithful husbands ‘abuse,
         And his low self-esteem as an excuse.
         She fought all her battles with might,
         And still try to do what was right.
         Through all her pain and misfortunes she has to bare,
         She stood firm and fair.
         Life treated her bad in many ways,
         She cried most of her days.
         But one day suddenly, she was set free,
        To have a new life eternally.

        Then my journey begun, and believe me when I tell you it was not fun.
        Hell was upon me, I live the same life as my mother you see,
        An unfaithful and abusive husband,
        Enduring suffering and pain, 
        There was just nothing in my marriage I could gain.

       The circle of Life is a mystery, you will see.
        You are the only one who can set you FREE.
