Hope

Stranger come closer 
And take my heart
Alive and beating
Hold it in your hands
The moment is fleeting
I am afraid it might 
Not be alive by the end 
Of the day of tomorrow 
Overwhelmed by sorrow
For the world sinking 
Into meaningless hollow
Repetitiveness of empty
Lonesome existence
Step by step slowly
Like darkness follows
The light of the day
In to the pitch of the night
Save my heart for the time
When it starts beating
Alive in unison again 
With awakening world
After hibernating in cold
Outskirts of cosmos
Let then my heart be free
And fly into the future
Described by poets beauty 
Locked in the prisons
By the rulers of the world
Who did not believe
There is eternal goodness
Hidden in the heart of a human
Which will be awakened
When the wind of change
Comes from the North 
Blowing away the chaos
From the surface of the earth
And destroy the thrones
Of evil that has been ruling
This world for too long

Then the heart will awaken
And will sing a song
In the breaking of dawn 
Of a new life coming
Stranger be my hearts keeper
So, it will sleep safely 
In your hands till morning
That is inevitably coming

As dawn begins to glow, everyday a performance, every moment a show. I to believe in the goodness hidden in the heart of a human.
