Many times, like a baby I cried, I confess,
But I overcame that cruel past...
Standing up strong without stress,
I erased a love I did not cast...
Now, as the only architect
Of my new and improved life,
I got back my self control and respect,
Ready to face any new strife...
Even when my once happy heart
Was painfully and mercilessly violated,
I never felt the world falling apart,
And back on my feet, I fully recuperated...
Awaiting for a better tomorrow,
I wide opened the doors to another sunshine...
Without any tears or silly sorrows,
I buried my past on due time...
With my heart and mind now reconciled,
I welcome the new course of my destiny,
Pasting on my face a brighter smile,
Knowing that nothing lasts for infinity...
