I'm a mathematician and have taught mathematics and related courses for over 3 years. Still working on myself. Still I rise

The Life I Live

Praying hard for better days

I promise to hold on

Thinking of all the things I did in my loneliness

I pray GOD to let me outta this shameful state

Father, I’m a sinner

I’m living in chains

Heavenly Father

I wanna be Your cobbler

So I can always keep Your shoes shining

Oh Father

I ain't even worthy of touching the soles of Your shoes

Just make me a cleaner in Your Kingdom

Perhaps I can be a gardener in Your garden

Please Father

Do not despise me

I just wanna be a worker in Your workshop

Though I ain't good enough

You still love me

Thank You Father

For giving me a second chance

Now I know

Better days await.
