#WQWWC: #1 Light or Lights

In the midst of darkness, light persists

However tough life could be

The sun would always peek through the leaves

Some leaves surrounded by heaves as free

Chasing dreams with all my might, I do

I was born to fight and grin

Through the leaves the sun would always peek

Dancing in the snow where I begin

We can always find light in the dark

Try as hard and be patient

The sun would always peek through the leaves

And for that we just keep on chasing*
