I See Hope

Somewhere behind this tall mountain I know there's hope waiting for me. Amidst the scorching touch of its angry skin, I breathe hope. Somewhere beyond this impregnable darkness I know there's Light waiting for me To put a halt to its unwanted reign. Though pestered by its armies of embalmed despair, I see hope. Even in the centre of this stubborn storm I know calmness is coming To get its hold off my boat And sail me safely home. Though shaken by its forceful tilts, I see hope. When I race and fall over the stinky mud of this life, Still I perceive the fragrance of hope. When I slipped over the steep of this world, The soothing touch of hope I feel upon my cheek And the softness of its whisper gets me back on my feet. Hope, I sense you For here I am breathing still.
