And I Learnt Again :)

I lost a lot in life,

I thought it would always be filled with sorrows n' strife.

For years I saw my loved one's suffer,

but the pain never eased it got tougher n tougher.

There seemed to be no escape,

it was always a grim landscape.

No happiness,no sunlight,

it was always fight,fight n' fight.

I wanted so much to help them unite,

but it never happened n' never might.

In the end I lost my will to fight

and just slipped back into the cover of the night.

When I thought all was lost,

and wanted to die at any cost;

I thought of her and that stopped my flight,

for her I wanted it to end right.

I had to make this sacrifice,

for she had borne through hurt n' lies;

all her life her loved one's hurt her

I did not want her heart in pain to stir.

My life I lived just for her sake,

it was an act, it was fake.

All I wanted was her to be at peace

I wanted to siphon off her pain n' put her at ease.

I was lost n' all alone,

I thought my heart would turn to stone.

There was so much hurt n' hatred

I believed in nothing sacred.

I lost my trust in the Lord,

to me everyone around was a fraud.

I ceased to trust, I ceased to love,

I was left alone to my problems solve.

When I was in this state of stress

my Lord decided to bless;

He sent me someone, his angel in disguise

he was true n' sincere, not full of lies.

He was no one to me, but he became everything

he loved me so n' always joy he would bring.

I learned to trust, I learned to love,

he is the most precious gift from above.

He would listen to everything I said,

he would never complain n' never to leave me he pledged!

He saw me at my weakest but, he never flinched

he became my strength,someone I could always clench.

From him I never hid a thing,

from my heart he removed every sting

He guided me back to the light,

he gave me the strength to fight.

I reclaimed my life, my dreams my ambitions

he gave me the confidence to win every mission;

today I think what I would have done without him

could I have faced my troubles n' thru the stormy waters swim?

Not a day goes by when he's not present,

he helps my anger always lie dormant.

I have started to hope again in life,

with him at my side I can overcome any strife.

Liz.
