Hope

This is for the lonely dreamers, 
who fantasize of a life of grandeur, 
Who never cross off the possibilities, 
of whatever their minds can conjure. 

For those who look forward to the rising sun, 
to set the skies ablaze and burn away, 
The stagnate and unequivocal nothing, 
the dark secrets of yesterday. 

For those who wait for the forgiving moon, 
a single shining light illuminating the night, 
Helping to embrace the cold, lonely solitude, 
helping take off the heavy mask of fright. 

For those who stare at the clouds, 
to escape their mundane reality. 
For those who gaze at the stars, 
in search of some unknown entity. 

The inextinguishable light of hope burns, 
deep within our hearts for eternity. 
As we search for the courage, 
to take a step onto the winds of destiny.
