WHEN DARKNESS FALLS, HOLD ON TO HOPE

In sorrow's dark and lonely night, Have you lost loved ones, or labored in vain for light? Has joy's sweet melody been shattered by life's unseen hand? Fear not, dear heart, for hope's sweet balm is at your command. Injustice's chains have bound you tight, Unjustly jailed, and suffering for another's plight. Love's sweet deceit has left you torn, And family's troubles weigh upon your heart forlorn. Rejection's sting has pierced your soul, Failure's label clings, and fears make you whole. But don't be swayed, dear heart, for success is near, And goodness, though unreciprocated, will ultimately clear. Fired, forsaken, and forgotten, you wander alone, A poor man's voice, drowned out by the crowd's cold stone. Evil's repayment for your love's pure heart, Don't stop your goodness, for it will never depart. What's meant to be will be, no force can alter fate's design, Though delayed, joy will arrive, and lost glory will entwine. Why succumb to life's complexities, and contemplate the darkest night? Why surrender to negativity's grasp, and consider the final, fatal fight? Guard yourself, relax, and rejoice, for the cross's burden will soon pass, And in its wake, a brighter dawn will rise, and forever last.
