The Hope Inside

Dark and Gloomy The days went by She lost her hope All's she did was cry Her mother was gone She couldn't go on Her life felt useless There was no point Then one day it came The letter that made her forget her shame Her and her mother had filled out the form But now was the day she knew for sure if she'd be living in a dorm She finally felt it again the happiness inside of her She opened the letter And there it was the answer to her life And the hope she could never find. Her acceptance to the college It blew her mind She thought of her mother And how she'd be proud She decided to go And stop moping around She grew up and had a good life There was a new person Made from dust.
