Hope
Darkness falls across the shadow’s edge
Where I stand when the midnight hour is approaching
And it is leading me to the verge of fear
Shivering in a cold winter night with echoes of cries
Pain reverberates though my heart as tears bringing to my eyes
And capture with desperation and loneliness
I am submerging in my own feeling
As fear shooting through my vein
When needle of guilt attacking to my own conscious
From the midst of my dream
Is day or night? Is good or bad?
I am a song with no melody
I am a poem with no rhyme
And words with no forms are falling from my lips
My dream is shattered as I am feeling devastated
Like a boat that lost its own directions
My heart is lost for the give of love
But only left for the bitterness and hopelessness
I am no longer wishing for the blessing of life only
for death
But hope has taken me back to earth and encourage me to wait
for the devastating moment to come to with a rewarding one
Oh! Nature is beside me and I can feel her smiling at me
Like a blue violet flower lifting her head up and water river
continue to flow as life shall be carrying on
I then discover the light of my dream reach to the blue sky
Like a blooming flower with a pink and white streak upon the
horizon. Greeting me with a pure joy and pride
I then burst into tears of my victory like prize in triumph bring
home.
Ah! At last I get to drink the sweet wine that I’ve never tasted
before
