Death of Hope

In shadows cast by fading light,
Hope's whispered sigh takes its flight.
Its final breath, a mournful sound,
In silence, fate's cruel turn is found.

Dreams once soared on wings untamed,
Now shattered, lost, in sorrow named.
The echo of a hopeful plea,
Now fades into eternity.

A world where aspirations wane,
Where promises dissolve in pain.
Yet in the ashes, a spark may cope,
For from demise springs resilient hope.

Though darkness cloaks in somber shroud,
New buds of faith may still be plowed.
In quiet hearts, a flicker's start,
The death of hope, a fresh restart.
