Once my life fell down.
It came falling slow and hard to the ground
It hurt
I wandered around in the rubble for years
Wallowing in my favourite and most hated pieces.
I was tied and shabby from dirt and tears
One day, there came a sudden strength from inside of me.
I threw all the bad wreckage away forever
Never to be seen or thought of again;
It was mentally incinerated
I carefully put the valuable pieces together with hope and love;
They are to form the base.
On this base I will build a great temple.
And I will travel Iong and far to find the best material
It will be sturdy and strong-
So strong it will never fall down again.
