To Hope

A distant place in this desolate world,
I'll meet you some day.
When all the night & day would be hurled,
In a hue of black and gray

I still feel you around 
In the breeze and the sea,
You're there on the mound,
And then you flee.

You lurk in the shadows,
Where I never stray,
Where the light stand on the gallows
Among all the black rays.

I believe you hear me,
So, listen me till the end,
To these words which now flow free,
From the part of a distant land.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly

Thanks for sharing this. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
