Journey Of Life

Mhayiwezizwe, 11th - South Africa
​
We embark on a journey, from the moment we're born
A path that unwinds, through joy and through scorn
With every step forward, we leave something behind
And the choices we make, shape the person we design

Through forests of wonder, we wander and roam
Discovering our passions, and making our way back home
We meet fellow travelers, who join us on our quest
Together we navigate, life's twists and turns, and find our best

But darkness descends, and shadows fall deep
Fears and doubts creep in, and our hearts begin to seep
Yet still we press on, through the blackest of nights
For in the darkness, lies a chance, to find our inner light

With every step forward, we grow stronger and wise
Our hearts beat with purpose, our souls open wide
We learn to embrace, the beauty and the pain
And find the courage, to love and to love again

Through mountains of challenge, we climb and we strive
And reach the summit, where our dreams come alive
We gaze out upon, the landscape of our past
And see the journey, that has made us who we are at last

And when our journey ends, and our time on earth is done
We look back upon, the life we've lived, and the battles we've won
We see the love we've shared, the memories we've made
And know that our journey, has not been in vain
