ABOVE ALL (POEM)


Above all the struggle and pain
Lays a way with a glorious lane
After a lot of difficulties in your way
Be sure to end with so much gain.

Above all the tears and sorrow
Lays a day called tomorrow
After surrounded my lack and barrow
At the end be sure you will not borrow

Above all the failures and rejection
Lays a day with a total redemption
After so much depression
Be sure to end with a celebration

Above all the mockery and insult
Lays a day of positive result
After displaying so many torts
Be sure to end with a brave thought

Above all the foes and hatred
Lays a day you would be needed
After being so ashamed and naked  
Be sure you would be vindicated

Above all that is written above
Lays a day you would fly like a dove
After focusing on your negative shadow
Am sure you will better ABOVE ALL

The dangerous side of life hit me at the face
I was wondering why i had no space  
With all my effort and inherited pace
I still ended up in this little cage
                              
  It is so dark and empty out here.      
Please listen carefully and get my word out   there
All i seek is the knowledge and wisdom to get out of here
Because i know riches and wealth have a place for me out there

    All i have now are my dreams and vision
    Packed, set, ready to go on this mission
    But this forces have my clear vision
   so putting me in this hole became their mission

     What am i to do in this sad world?
   Beg? fight? cry? die or sleep and never wake up,
    Because sitting alone in this lonely world
    had brought no gain than use my words
          
    so i screamed and cried aloud for help
    i ran back and front till my skin melt
    then there was this cool air that i felt
    it calmed me down and told me there was     no help.
