If wishes do come true
If tomorrows do be brighter
If yearnings do be assuaged
It simply means that hope lives on
Hope lives on and struggles to be
Just to keep us warmer in spirit!
Pray, without it, what would we be
If not heartless beings
Having no sensibility and no desire
To smile for no reason
To heal our cracked hearts
To breathe in snugly when the sun’s rays would
Immerse us in its glow
To dream, yes to dream
Of better days to come
Days, as we want them to be!
Why, hope is just like the wings of angels
Once it touches us
We immediately shed off our negativity
And let our souls take their own flights
By daring to take a step ahead
Regardless of what may come!
Hope remains as the token of mercy
From the Gods, for, somehow
Even if they do keep away from us
For the sole reason that we fell from their abodes
Why, they do wish us the very best!
Why, hope inhabits me
Hope has built its nest in me
More, it has strengthened the fortress of my heart
By breaking down its reclusive dominion
And by propelling it in the face of life
Hope has flooded my whole being
As if it were a valley, with dry flowers and trees
Dry flowers and trees yearning for colossal amounts of hope
To wake up and to realize of the miracle that surrounds them!
Life, without hope, would be meaningless
Humans, without hope, would be vegetative zombies
And I, without hope, would be a mere robot
But I do know that wishes do come true
I do know that tomorrows can be brighter
I do know that dreams do take concrete forms
Merely, because I have the particles of hope
Bursting in my whole being!
Hope ,and we human the eternal hopeful beings,I love this topic and the way you unravel it’s folds,combing them out to straighten them…wonderful
An insightful,introspective,affirmative poem.
