Hope
In the smile of dawn, I woke up
Clouded was the day
And darkness fills in my eyes
Without stopping falling raindrops
And the breeze that tickles on my cheeks
Never cools me anymore.
Nothing to lose
And nothing to own
Only the memories hold me alive.
Don’t know what to do.
And where will go.
My legs drag me somewhere.
Not clear my paths
Weird is my mission
Destiny tricks me every time.
Failure shatters me, but
Still hope shines in me
Like a firefly.
I see and I remember
The rise in every fall
And the times I move ahead.
Not tired
Not dim
Hope glitters in me.
