Again

Filled with threads of hatred
Amidst deceivers and pretenders 
You were sent

Sinking may look inevitable
The arrow may be off the bow already
Despite the gun to your head

Hear this whisper "love again"

The roof may be on fire
Misery may define you

Hear this whisper "love again"

Your survival is a promise of victory
This darkness is an assurance of a coming dawn

Breathe,
Live,
Love again.
