Trying Harder

Trying harder, with a grieving heart
To lift one's character
Through ashes of emptiness,
Break all barriers- planted by division
That leaves people trapped inside out,
Dignity ruined by sorrows',
Making them voiceless like 'dead-wood',
Their souls scattered- all over like broken jar
With every piece looking to start again
Making it cumbersome process
To dethrone fear, and grow hope
Rise and shine, and enjoy the streams
Find joy in new beginning, with evergreen attitude
And hovers one's wings of hope like never before,
Sending goodwill messages beyond hills, and across seas
That you are coming, to bear testimony of inspired warrior
Gently, like happy storm
However, this time, to be victorious
