I was a vilain,
Today a hero.
I was a coward,
Today i'm intrepid.
I was a looser,
Today a winner.
They laughed at me,
They all did.
My tears brought joy
To their hearts.
My sorrows and hardships
Amused them, A LOT.
They didn't realise,
Ha! Ha!
It was too early,
Too early to judge
My destiny.
They forgot,
God heard my prayers.
They forgot,
Nothing ever stays the same.
I smile with the rising sun,
And wave good night to the
Sinking sun.
Their insults made me
STRONG..........
And God unswered....
MY PRAYERS.
