I believe in something
Tell me what to believe in
All hope has gone in flame
Say what I'm to trust in
When all hopes are caged on feelings the same
Cheated with the ignominy of love
Isolated with the dangerous memories
Memories that flies greater than a dove
But shines as bright as fire flies
Tell me what to believe in
I believe in something
Something that leads to nothing
Daring me to be cast in flame
Now I've seen something
Something greater than nothing
I believe in something
Now I believe in love
About this poem
I wrote this poem after my breakup, thinking that I won't be happy again. But all that changed when I found my love once more
