HOPE IN HARD TIMES

Quietly, I sat alone, staring into an unknown space. It is here that I have always been A world where darkness and remorse reigns, A world full of misery.

I have watched what was dear taken, I have fought an endless battle, Yet I manage to live, only to be declared a loser. The invisible scars remind me of my shame, It's a shame I know not "how" and "when."

I have longed to be free, To know the meaning of truth, To feel how it’s like to be declared a victor. But a voice keeps saying, "This is who you'll forever be."

But a day came, As I sat in my misery. I looked up to the sky, where all truth lies, And it hit me like solid rock.

Even after a heavy rain, With roaring thunder and sharp lightning, The dark clouds still turn blue, And the sun still gracefully smiles It is an experience everyone witnesses but never sees.

I felt the burden in my heart lift, My eyes shone like the sun. I felt unfamiliar peace come alive, An overwhelming strength surrounded me. I felt ready for anything coming my way.
