'''I Lost My Life For Nothing'''
 +
               
 +
I left my country <br />
 +
I came, in a strange land <br />
 +
The strange city <br />
 +
The strange ways <br />
 +
The stranger people <br />
 +
The strange language <br />
 +
Even the strange surroundings <br />
 +
I felt alone <br />
 +
I missed my beloved ones <br />
 +
However, <br />
 +
I wanted to gain my career <br />
 +
I desired to learn and know <br />
 +
The wonder of the world <br />
 +
For that <br />
 +
I faced and bore <br />
 +
And wore the painful time <br />
 +
I struggled and struggled <br />
 +
Even though, <br />
 +
Time became, enemy of life <br />
 +
I stood firm, to win at every cost <br />
 +
I sold my heart, mind, and soul <br />
 +
In the hands of an opportunist, <br />
 +
And cunning and liar one <br />
 +
Who used me, years and years <br />
 +
I lost, my dreams, career,  <br />
 +
And life for nothing, but pain, <br />
 +
Sorrow, sorry and tears <br />
 +
That one threw me out <br />
 +
After entirely breaking me  <br />
 +
I was once again alone <br />
 +
Holding the passport,  <br />
 +
With my broken heart, dream <br />
 +
Career and even life <br />
 +
I have not the control, on my tears <br />
 +
I cannot turn the time that I lost <br />
 +
I feel still a stranger <br />
 +
I miss you, oh my motherland.
