Watch the Hope Sink

And the rain was falling into water deep,
All dispirit harbor left the deluge caught,
Broken – hearted feelings that people tried to keep,
All the tears they’ve shared,
Seeing off the boat…
Useless living is worse than a sin,
Tries to fix it with a faraway travel,
Foolish people built up the boat,
To the land they’ll be happy forever.

Every morning was blessed for the trip,
They’ve prepared till the last ray of dawn – 
Make it great, so it never could sink…
But one morning their treasure was gone.

Them who’ve never found love,
Who knew – there no people but sharks,
All of them stood on the sand,
And the boat was gone waters dark.

Loose your hope of helpers wise,
Thou your life give you the creep,
The last moment the boat will be gone,
Breaks the dream of the rescuing trip…

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. 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.
