Second chances

Emmanuel Ntezeyombi

Epic
When trouble comes my way
I feel like my life is in decay
My body says this is the end
But in life there is a bend
You can turn another corner
So when pain comes, not over
A new day and life smiles to me
This day confirms the good to be
I will lift my head up and smile
Knowing it lasts only one mile
Then winter ends and sunshine
The hopes I have will be mine!
