Hope

Infinite. I need you more 
Clothe me with Love.

Sugar! Silver Crown of Wisdom
Quench my thirst, fine red wine

Love me. As a mother,
Tighter little hands, never let go

Demons swallow me each time
Opposite worlds, identical to my sight

Am yearning for you. HERO.

Weaker I have grown, devoured by red horns
Curry me, friend, a brother you are Samaritan,

Protect me, the ebony of aging eyes,
Beautify broken self with gold, 

Fill me up, bliss overflow,
Mint and graceful

Evening Sun settled curses
Show me your face, ancient one

Braced self, conquer like David
Bring forth your tiger. We wore crowns with tough fights.

Be the shine,
For every crispy morning begets joy.
