Keeping Hope is the Only Way

I had a dream that I would fly,

To touch the blazing sun in the sky,

That strong desire to shine my name,

Reaching that height was no shame.

 

I could not reach the mountain peak,

My climbing rope was too weak,

I fell so hard from that cliff,

Didn’t realize, the aftermath was also stiff.

 

My tears were burning the midnight oil,

My heartbeats were twisted like a coil,

I was tormented by backlash,

 And was treated like trash.

 

I woke up from a deep slumber,

A distant voice soothed away the cumber,

I reached the moon as I had hope,

With her light I could finally cope.

 

So, believe this when I say,

Keeping hope is the only way,

You cross the night to live another day,

Darkest of tunnels too, have a ray.
