Choosing The Light
Life littered with litres of distress and stress.
Uncertainties certain to terminate happiness in our nest
But we chose hope
Darkness lingering over our lingerie in secrecy
Hurts dished out in hot tempers
Yet we chose hope
Subjected to torture rather than nurture as though we're objects.
Wrongfully wronged in places where the rights of the people should matter.
Still, we chose hope
There wouldn't be the need to be the light of the world if the world is full of light.
Whatever life throws at us
Our light will never go dim
We'll hold on to the thoughts and voice of hope in cloudy days.
We choose hope.
