Inspire My Heart

A man's strength 
can be measured by his appetites,
Trust that your longing 
will leave you
and that will give you the strength.
A human being 
is mortal and changeable
with desires and impulses
hopes and despairs.
The night brings no hope of escape
In these gloomy times
let us continue in the hope 
of the poet's ray of light 
which will vanquish the darkness, 
the darkness of that time 
and for always. 
The world is so dark right now,
Winds whisper of high hopes, 
victory is in the skies,
smile as you used to smile
and inspire my heart.
