False Hope

The sun had begun to shine through the clouds
And the rain has finally stopped 
My soul is no longer pulled down towards the muddy waters
And the river has become shallow and stagnate
My heart soars high above the world of sorrow
To a planet ruled by happiness and love
I am no longer drowning in memories
But I am walking through the garden of peace and expectation
The future stands before me
And it is replete with endless possibilities
