Hope


A new hole formed in Emi's heart,

The absence of a child tore her apart.

Her hunger for living slowly began to fade,

She began pushing Paul and everyone away.


But Paul made a vow to Emi on that isle,

In sickness and in health, he'll be by her side.

He was the bearer of light on her darkest days,

The sure and steady hand to guide her through the haze.


With love and patience, Paul nursed his wife,

Reminded his beloved of the beauty of life.

He made her remember she was never alone,

As long as they're together, they will always be home.


And so Emi learned to breathe again,

Remembered in love all her lost children.

Her bond with Paul became stronger than ever,

There was nothing to fear when they were together.


Come the day of their fifth anniversary,

Paul had planned something big.

He woke her before dawn, told her to prepare,

They were going on trip somewhere very far.


Emi had no idea as to where they will go,

She grew more confused as they headed to the airport.

She asked her husband to tell her the truth,

He didn't speak until he handed her the tickets.


"We're going to back to where it began,

Back to the land you once called home.

Somehow I know, our child awaits us there,

A child we'll love, and give a bright future."
