Hope

Woke up in the morning, sun shining through the sky

A new day and a new beginning to try

Thoughts of yesterday’s failure zipping through my mind

A new treasure waits today, only to find

The pain stayed as an unwelcome guest almost forever

Left behind a wounded man floating through the river

The river meandering through the province of hope

Gives new life to me, many a problems to cope

Today is my stage and me, it’s only performer

The world my audience and my only reformer

Stumbling onto the stage, I had to play my role

The judge ever kind sent me on a parole

Left the prison called earth, to a seat next to the judge

Only to discover that he was none but myself

For we are the best judges of our own actions

Let’s never try splitting humanity into factions

A brand new dawn will awake us all

From the deep abyss to the mountains so tall

Light and hope will fill empty spaces and many a gap

To draw faith from a perennial tap
