Darkness was all around me, And I like a castle on a quicksand; Forced summon all my chi To pull myself together on a firm land. I lead my life to avoid regrets With my spirits high as a kite. But life has its way to clear it's debts told me I'm worth less than a spite. Grateful to my mate Who showed me a way out; Snuck through a rusty gate Beyond the mansion of self doubt. Held on to a wee bit of hope And showing no sign of standing still. I rode on as a mechanism to cope Like a variegated flower of squill. Didn't take long to learn, Past is not a ghost haunting my present; It made my belief stern. It was time well spent.

Time well spent
Darkness was all around me, And I like a castle on a quicksand; Forced summon all my chi To pull myself together on a firm land. I lead my life to avoid regrets With my spirits high as a kite. But life has its way to clear it's debts told me I'm worth less than a spite. Grateful to my mate Who showed me a way out; Snuck through a rusty gate Beyond the mansion of self doubt. Held on to a wee bit of hope And showing no sign of standing still. I rode on as a mechanism to cope Like a variegated flower of squill. Didn't take long to learn, Past is not a ghost haunting my present; It made my belief stern. It was time well spent.
