A Wise Man

A man with a broken dream and a broken heart,
He's assured that he must be smart.

He didn't give up on life,
Every passing day made him more alive.

He realizes that - Every failure brings with it,
The seed of an equal or even greater benefit.

Why do you have to live a life full of despair,
When you know life is unfair?

So here's to life,
And all the beautiful things.

Yes, here's to life,
And all the joy it brings.
