In Hope

i crave in hope
for things unexpecting
far from the norm
merged in my dreams

who said fantasies were felonies
for then i would have received a death penalty
take my wish list and see for yourself
yes, i know what you want to tell me
"Wild dreams can make you go mad."

but all i feel
is the strength within
a candle lit eternally
a bond of life to fulfill

there's one thing i know
the candle shall never go off
for that strength in heart
shall soar me onwards
