The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Live For the Sake of Hope

Timeless tales of love unspoken and poets
Writings go unread

Minds go on masked, unbroken and miles
left to tread

Hearts are easily shattered
unbreakable and fortunes left untold

Distant clouds break free as my life begins
to unfold

At once night was my masque and joy
was not a liberty I knew about

Though through many years of struggles hope
begins to sprout
