This Hope

Rejoining the world
after shaking off the ashes
mishaps came
and yet I rise
 Trials known 
by fire
but still surpassing follies
taking to heart each mistake
 Looking back
reminding me of the places
one been
determined to move forward
 Lighting my own way
by flames of desire
my will is strong
hope will never die
