Love the Life You Live
to Live the Life You Love
By Florence E.
What kind of life to be lived
In the bondage of darkness I was
Tired and stressed I cried.
Hungry I slept and dreamt a dream
Struggles of life I had to undergo
Life was becoming too hard and unbearable
I would plead that the ground would open and swallow me My world was dark, darker than night
No beam of light was penetrating
I thought I was a strange existing being
Born by no one and got from nowhere
I had nobody to socialize with, I was a lonely being Hopelessness tortured me
lonely as usual I sat under a tree
in to a deep sleep I landed
I dreamt a passionate dream
A vision I saw living in a mansion
A comfortable life motivating young people
Save and change the lives of many. Poverty shall be no more Since riches would overflow... But it was just a dream Nothing but a dream in the situation I found myself.
When will such a dream come true?
When will I ever live the life I love?
The dream keeps on crisscrossing my mind
Day after day. I still keep it bubbling,
It makes me feel that I am of dignity
I will surely live the life I love.
