in the silent nights,
we see the peace darkness brings,
as we watch the things pass by
always thriving to get a reward
for all our sacrifices
looking for a way to solve
tomorrow's problems
and finding answers to
questions unanswered
on our beds,
we see and feel the love of our hearts
and marry the women we longed to have
seeing a bright future ahead of us
living up to our expectations
and having visions about
what we are most enthused with
holding on to life
in our awakening,
we could hear the melodies of birds
feeling hopeful in a hopeless situation
attempting to grab the opportunities we never had
deciding to live the life we lost yesterday
thriving for better conditions
longing for better days ahead
we struggle until we win
until victory becomes ours
