A Toast
Toast to the yester days
When I almost succumbed to pain
My brave got tired of being brave
A hungry stomach cares not about fame.
I heard success comes with time
And my only wish was to survive
I worked and often gazed at the time
But it seemed success was far behind.
Some pain makes you strong
Some makes you hate the world
Sadly, my face knew no laughter
And my heart knew no love.
Even the poor have enemies
Thus, my only friend was my misery
Opportunity came and I stole it
Tis the reason my present is smiling.
Toast to the yester days
When I almost succumbed to pain
Toast to the pain that inspired me
Never thought I would be this happy.
