And just when I thought all was lost, a feeling I called “hope”
grew inside me. A thought that I might be happy someday. But
when and how long must I wait? I looked into the mirror and
always asked myself when my chance would come. Many a
time I looked at my reflection and always felt discouraged. I
always filled my head with thoughts that all was lost but this
time was different. I felt an urge to keep my hopes up. Despite
my discouraging thoughts, I felt different. I felt like something
good might happen. Am I the hero of my happiness? I’d like to
see what becomes of me.


The morning sun so bright and bold
Had filled my heart like the times of old
A sweet lullaby so freshly sold
Unravelled mother’s love like the rains unfold
It was all so new for me to behold
As I climbed up high to receive my gold
It was all so sweet like I knew it all
Until the fates drew close for my time to fall
The breeze whispered it was my final call
Right under deception as the days grew tall
A soaring day, a burdened night
I sought to find my crippled might
To prepare me for tomorrow with no fright.


Hope, a feeling that strengthens our minds and builds our faith
to face our destiny.
