He Once

He Once 

He once woke up with hopelessness governing his life
He once woke up feeling dead though alive.
Once, tears were dancing “adowa” on his cheeks
He once blamed God for not getting what he seeks
Once he woke up with nothing his everything.
Once,trauma,pain, and sorrows
Were the only sweets life throws
at him.
Now, hymn,
 The songs of joy he now does sing.
he now believes God deals with time,
He just had to be calm.
Well you will think God hates you
If you still wait in the queue
Of time. Now God has planted a hope in his heart,
And waters it with success he never had..
