Hope

Woe is me,
   A stranger in a strange land of hate,
   An eternal enemy to love and to trust,
   
  
   Sorrow is my companion,
   Lonliness  is my mate,
   Which of the two is my fate?


   Open thy gates,
   Thy wonderous Pearly Gates,
    For outside i know only pain,


    Can i love again?
    Maybe tomorrow,
    Maybe tomorrow.
