Perhaps you’re tired;
Not getting much sleep,
And I know that you have to work hard
In order to succeed.
At times you can experience lots of stress,
But remember that you’re always blessed.
“Wonderful things come to those who wait,”
and I hope you’d always keep the faith.
“One in a million!” sure that’s you!
And guess what?
I’m happy for you.
Whether you’re feeling down or in sorrow.
There’s lots of hope for you tomorrow.
And if your world is dark,
The sun will shine,
and you’d succeed in a matter of time.
