My Fate

I have flown to the limitless skies
While bewitched by your bittersweet lies...
On you I placed my heart's desire and hope
But, instead, you betrayed my trust...

I offered you pure love but you played a game,
Making me look like a picture without a frame...
You designed that game and played it well,
Turning my life into a living Hell...

I learned the hard and painful way
To travel through my destiny's highway
Finding myself trapped in the shadow
And living in a world so narrow...

Now, laughing at what I thought I had lost,
I realize that you were not worth the cost...
Today, I try to bury my turbulent past
By reserving the best of me for last...

Hoping to find a fruit with a better taste,
In God's hands I leave my fate...
Gone are the worries and pain,
I am master of my own domain...
