Grace Poem by Lubna Hazeem

Well, i hope now you're well-aware
Of all the gifts that you must share
Don't tell me of the choice you make
Because it will be yours alone to take

To go forwards or just return
To the bridges that you have burned
To the people whom you'd forsake
Of your selfish and twisted ways

This might not be the safest road
Climbing up mountains in the cold
Looking for strangers to disturb
To be guided by their words

Fictional stories I'd never recall
But villains are the ones who always fall
Villains are the ones who must pay the price
A double one for their ridiculous crimes

Oh, and now i wish i never read such books
They're the ones who bring nightmares, it looks
Yet they're the ones that are most valuable
If you'd count on them for your survival

And here comes the wind for the final strike
And here comes the wave of destiny's light
Forget about your crown, hold on to your sword
Let your demons vanish from this world

Against the darkness, i now must fight
To reach the realm of goodness' might
I'd march to the kingdom of forgiving grace
If I'd ever want to see the light of day
