Kaleidoscope of Hope


It began with hysteria one day,
On seeing him, she screamed, 
Trying to hide and run away, 
A chaotic scene he never dreamed,

Her mind spiraled out of control,
A perpetual deterioration, 
Their promises of love, a hollow hole,
An apocalypse like situation,

She drew into herself slowly, 
Away from all around her, 
A cacophony in her mind wholly,
As she forgot to remember, 

Still, her husband loves her deep,
And in the end, their love will thrive, 
Coz in praying for her, he does keep 
A kaleidoscope of hope alive.
