I Prevailed…I Focused…I Won!


I lived a life so sad,
Awash in the sea of tears,
All my life I lived with strife,
And tried to hide my fears!
My happiness was totally marred,
By ill winds that blew my way,
Like a bird in a trapped, gilded cage,
All my lifelong day!

I was hiding my hurt inside,
Then like a feather on a breeze…
All my pain and sadness blew away…
Through the whisper of the trees!
Like the sand slipping through a timer,
It was only a matter of time…
Before I came into the light…
And finally, peace became mine!

I prevailed!  

I took on every dark cloud,
And pushed them high up and away,
Where they will stay forever more,
For I won, this one fine day!

I focused!

Yes, I really did…
And stood the test of time,
Once more I stood tall and proud,
Now everything in my life is fine!

I Won!

I allowed the light into my life!
And I chased all my sadness away!
Yes, I prevailed, I focused, I won…
And will be happy all my lifelong day!
