His story so common yet so unique So not everyone could see the glister of it. He's traveled far and wide He searched for a purpose in his life. He's seen the world and all its sights And experienced both the joys and the frights. His destiny shaped like a puzzle Each piece a challenge a test to his hustle. In this vast universe he struggles to find his place His future unknown his fate he has yet to embrace.

So it's a story he tells To all who listen your heart will be fed. Of struggles and hope and love That he's grateful for from the heavens above. That melody I heard that night In a far away hospital beyond the sight. It reminded me of you my love In the back far of my heart and mind. You arrived in light In a summer's fateful moonlit night. This is the story that I will tell Of that unforgettable '97 night. Aman aman So suddenly you are gone from this world aman aman. And now I'll burn my heart and cry can't tell you no more that I love you. So suddenly you are gone from the earth to see. I'll pray and try to fight the fright that this was your only night. That fateful night under the silver moonlit sky You were born and you were gone with a swift and sudden cry. How how can I say how much you mean. How from soil to heaven how to express this grief. How and what can I do. Lena my daughter I love you. We're holding on barely so by the pain we know My faith is lost my soul is sore and I wish to live no more. My love and light keep on trying to save your life There's no hope our child is gone tomorrow will shine no more. How how can I say how much you mean. How from soil to heaven how to express this grief. How and what can I do. Lena my daughter I love you What a tragic fate!! The promised child born dead their destiny in shambles their tears shed. Their hearts were shattered as if the world had lost its sound. They struggled to deal with the pain a way to flee to be found. The mother was the one that tried to keep a clear mind to keep her family together From the hardships that they would yet find. But it seemed like it was too late some evil powers had already prevailed. The fate of this family now shattered in pieces its heart and soul torn apart like scattered puzzle pieces. An awful night followed the sky was dark the stars all gone our hearts were broken like never before. I still remember the time and cry it was because all of me I cannot lie. I will never forget... That night of despair that night of tears that night that left us divided with doubts and fears. I'm home. Where have you been all night? I was so worried. I couldn't sleep. I needed to be alone with my thoughts. You could have at least told me where you were going. I was worried. I needed space. I needed to clear my head. And you left me alone without notice? At a time like this how could you be so cold... Don't you think I know that? It's just that... I just can't seem able to...face anyone. Not even you... I think...I think I have to leave... You can't just go like this. We need to talk and work through this together. No!! You don't understand. I need to get away. I can't keep reliving this nightmare every day. Calm down I understand that you're hurting but running away isn't the answer. I can't face this I can't keep going on like this. I need to find a way to escape. Get a hold of yourself. Face reality. We have to learn to live with it and find a way to heal. You think you are so much smarter with all your 'We have to heal' bullshit. We don't need this right now. We have to let go of the guilt and.... Don't you dare say another word Hope! I can't just let go! I can't just forget! What do you want me to do exactly? I'm trying my hardest to keep our family together but all you do is reject me. We need to look after each other to get through this! Now more than ever! I can't look after anyone right now. Especially you. You keep reminding me of her. Why do you want to cut me out of your life? We're a family right? Just leave it be...Let me be alone. You can't just go like this. Please don't do this... I'm sorry but I can't keep pretending that everything is okay. Goodbye Hope... John!!! And then after all the ashes settled the only thing that remained within me was her cry for help. But sadly I didn't care at the time. A lot of time passed until we met again. Under another silver moon on another fateful night. And the state of my mind could only be described as one thing... Insanity! And so it is done the child of light dead the father's soul shattered. My victory my triumph forever bent another soul suffering to eternity spent. Her mother is frail and unable to fight This time I'll bring my darkness and fill her world with blight!!! With her soul next it will be done. The child's family destroyed!!! Her time will never come. With her gone my turn is up. My time...for your life... This is the Devil's time... My heart is heavy my mind a mess first I need to find John nothing more and nothing less. He blames himself for our child's death but it's not his fault it was just fate's test. He's lost in grief and can't move on but I'll find him even if it takes me half of my life and more. I'll hold his hand and wipe his tears and guide him through the coming years And so years went by all this time she was chasing after John's running shade. Finally she found him in their wedding church crying Contemplating his choices the ones that led him to this miserable state of mind. John!! I finally found you my dear Our grief has kept us distant I fear. I know our child's death has left us our family scarred But I've learned to heal while you've been by yourself with your soul barred. Hope It's true it's been too long My pain is too great and I have nowhere to belong. My thoughts are frail my strength is gone Only shadows and misery now linger on. Don't worry... I'll be your strength when you feel weak I'll be your hope when all you see is bleak. I'll love you forever until the end And together we'll heal and love again. Hope... Their final chapter about to begin. an epic battle they will face one not sure to win. You'll never find peace you'll always feel pain. Eternal rest let go and attain.

Together let's face our grief head on We'll honor our loved ones and move on. Then it's time! I'll whisper in your ear a tale of deceit Of that night's outcome the Devil's scheme. You thought it was fate that took your child away. But it was me! The devil! With a plan to the last detail. A seed of doubt and grief I planted in your brain And as the child grew so too did her pain. She fought with all her might till her dying breath But in the end her soul was mine the damage was dealt.
