Lost Hope

hush! my little child, be patient don't behave so wild
destroy those negativity from your mind,
remember the word compassionate
be kind,
perish your faith from fears
diminish your heart-breaking eyes from tears
you are loved
surely, there is someone who cares
laugh away with joy
imagine that baby boy, playing with his toy 
forget that you are nervous
stay calm,
stay humble,
demolish your lost hope
close your mouth, don't grumble.
