Permission!



Lord let me
Always and forever
Be travelling to reach
The promise land called...
Success.

But please Lord please
Let me never ever leave
The desert land called...
Failure.

For it is through the
Power of hunger and
The pleasure of thirst
That I crave for and cling on to...
You.

And it is during the
Journey of a million miles
That my eyes stay fixed on your...
Lovely Face.
