Pages of Life

PAGES OF LIFE Page one reveal the man He is brought to the world The nurses whip welcomes him And he howl desperately to be heard But no one could behold his tears He made the mother weak under The strange atmosphere of delivery. There life begins, he crawl, stand, then walk Suffering under the sun of wickedness Rejection, and discrimination follow in The prey of sadness, life dawn on him Like an ice that struck on the naked soil Truth is reveal to him whilst the dark side Of the blue sky remain covered Childhood dreams hurt in, teens dream break apart After, the hunt for a partner begins desperately He is now a man and has total control of his life Mother no longer control him. father twist his ears no more But cuddle him with advices Children emerges and problem multiply Salary insufficient and troubles increase Yet he has to maintain his integrity always Death comes knocking when those wrinkles stretched Out on his face like a tribal mark from the west His legs could no longer hold his pretty body And his weak soul which seek to rest in the bosom Of a heavenly father who knows all Si fit welcomes him as death comes unknown He collapsed one morning and be gone forever But always remembered by his deeds In this naked world of sin filled with evil
