This man I knew never felt contented.

In whatever he does, he always finds flaws.

Never stops until he'll get what he wanted.

But then life never gave him the chance he needed.


His heart full of hatred, he turned his back to life.

Never once looked back and kept his head in the dark.

If only he did, he had seen what he's waiting for.

That's one opportunity had been stolen within his grasps.


The man felt so down and living his life day by day.

He never once smiled even for a second.

So isolated and alone, that's how he lives.

Not a day he thought of ending all of this.


The man who never contented bumped into this child.

She was so little and fragile, but sporting a smile so wide.

Even without feet and hands, she was laughing out loud.

And later he learned she was dying in a month.


His throat was burning and his heart was aching.

He never once thought he will shed a tear.

With shaking hands he reaches for the child.

And his life suddenly flashes before his eyes.


The man who never contented feeling sorry for the child.

He was ashamed he never even thank God for his life.

Unlike him, the child was contented with what she has.

Never complained, but embracing her only chance at life.


The man stares on the child longer than he would have.

In silent, he promises to live differently from the past.

His face shifted and her mouth parted.

For years he never once thought he could survive.


The peace in his heart flowed out on his veins.

It was like magic and now he felt happier.

For no reason he felt light and calm.

And he always shares a smile even with a stranger.


The man who never contented was now a changed man.

The child passed away but her memory remains.

He always prayed for the child to return.

For he regards her as his little angel.


The man who never contented adopts a child.

He soon realized that things had its own time.

Now always happy and preach what he had.

And never fail to thank the child who opened his eyes.
