Heaven Can Wait

Lacking the strength to fight,

Ready to surrender to life,

Society’s flaws had me surrounded.



While being stabbed by all directions,

Desperation delivers the strength,

The power to conquer adversities.



Battling for happiness with a strong sword,

Winning the war against the brutal enemy,

Finally realizing that heaven can wait.
