End of the light

I feel so tired,
Like I can't go on,
But go on I must,
If for nothing else, just myself.

One day I will take the stand,
And what will I say then?
Have I done my best?
Did I pass the test?

Oh surely I would regret then,
If I gave up now,
So no matter how I fall,
I'll stand up again.

Though tears may fill my eyes,
And sorrow drown my heart,
And weariness eats my soul,
I will take that stand, mercy...

I win

I think there are things which I should be,
But when I look at me I am not,
And yet when I stop to think I am happy,
I win.

There are some things which upset me,
Painful and bitter they are,
But as I accept them patiently,
I win.

If you say to me "Something is wrong with this world",
Hard for me to say "You're wrong",
But as life take it's turn and twirl,
I win.

I may be better than no one,
And yet I race on in life,
Because at the end of the line I know,
I win.

The impossible dream

Sometimes I dream of the impossible dream,
Grand in it's majesty and awesome is it's nature,
Then I wake up...

What a lovely sight

So early in the morning and you are already awake,
Cheerfully playing with whatever you have,
Seeing you happy brings delight to my heart,
What a lovely sight.

Your little sister is soon awake too,
As no one give attention she cries for some,
And full of concern you go to her,
Play with her and stop her tears,
What a lovely sight.

To be able to carry such lovely sight in my heart,
Truly I am blessed.

The foe within

Oh what a way to go,
To be constantly unhappy,
This it shouldn't be,
But if not for the foe within.

Looking at others with envy,
Grudging at what might be,
The failure is here you see,
But if not for the foe within.

State of content

Are you happy with your work?

There is the beauty

You will not see the beauty of patience,
Till you have seen the ugliness of haste,
You will not see the beauty of perseverance,
Till you have seen the ugliness of hopelessness,
You will not see the beauty of me,
Till you have seen how ugly I really am.
