Hope
Hope is what keeps me going
it is what makes me breathe
Hope is what stairs my motives
it is what makes me live
What if I live tomorrow
or what if I miss the next Sunrise What if I sail through today
Or what if I see the last moonrise
To bring food on my table
I cook on the fire of hope
To prevent burying my breath
I keep up the pyre of hope.
But sometimes it goes dim
in the darkness gloom and cries
no matter what I do
Hope dumps all my tries.
I may die I may live
I may cry I may smile
But what keeps me all alive
is my hope that stays
untill life's last mile....
