At times I feel like
I am enduring this life alone.
No one to turn to.
No one to talk to.
Seems like the weight of the world
Is on my shoulder.
I couldn't look up and gaze
Straight at the stars.
I have to bow down.
Take some steps back.
Forget myself and my dreams,
Set aside my passion,
Everything what my heart craves to do.
Because I have to fulfill the dreams
Of those I love,
Those people around me,
By living up to their expectations,
As life is meant to live for others.
Yet, it turns out to be challenging.
There are times when I want to give up.
I feel so weak and tired.
But that's the time
When God reminded me of His love.
That I am not alone.
He's with me all the time.
I can pour all my heartaches to Him,
Cry hard as long as the pain subsides.
I just need to trust His process,
And surrender all to His will.
That someday there will be an end,
To the tears that I shed.
All that I sacrificed will bloom
Like fragrant flowers in the field.
And one day
In His most perfect time
I will look up again at the stars
And make my dreams realize
One at a time.
As what He promised to me-
"Everything will be worth it, my child."
