Flying With Winds of Hope
Forbid that you find yourself shattered from loss of hope
This can bind you to the verge to go to sparrows point
It’s there that one harbors this feeling of loss
who perceives the ocean’s ledge as a way to release the pain.
Out on the ledge the mind cannot reason under desperation
One slip could end the grief that chained up the heart to suffer
also taking one’s life to the rocks below.
It’s where sparrows flocked to gain hope which would provide them with powerful wings to fly
Those that flew demonstrated they had wings to soar over rough waters. Some with fear remained on the edge laden with emotional distress
Hope became strong enough to overcome fear and take action
Taking action to rid oneself of lost hope will find that lift
One may not be able to lift up without seeking those winds.
Hope must remain within oneself to succeed beyond a loss
Without hope, not even the winds will give rise to soar
Hope generates an uplifting feeling of encouragement
which will ground negative feelings of hopelessness
You like the sparrows will be able to soar with the winds,
leaving that loss on the ledge at sparrows point.
