Life

Wishing tonight for a brighter tomorrow
Struggling through life's ever-flowing sorrow
Knowing one day I will be set free 
To a place that I long to be
Hoping for a future where I can be a success
Not worrying about everything making it all compressed
Show my feelings, know why they appear
Raise my family, show them that I hold them very dear
Support my friends, not forgetting about trust
Making sure they're loyal because it's a must
Live a life full of empathy and love
Go to the park and play games with a glove
Go slowly and peaceful to my eternal spot
The cycle is on again after my son has his little tot
Live with my Lord forever I will find peace
Yes, my friend, I am finally free!

Life holds lots of mysteries and there are so many things that we'd like to do sometimes or wish we'd done, but as they says as long as there is life, there is hope. Very well done.
