HOPE Your words pierce through Like a sword to the core of my being Softly falling into the abyss of darkness Endless thoughts swirling A memory stained forever in that moment Will me not earthly grounds You are long past wants Was it unrequited love Have the heavens frowned upon me Am I Destined for loneliness A lost soul searching for the truth Trapped between two realms I hear sudden distant seas calling I fear and plead Poseidon seek me not With nature’s tears I Search the starry skies Of the deepest ocean hues Oh! goddess of the night From chaos you gave birth to Elpis Whom tender her touch Tames the storm that arises within I gladly embrace your presence and I am swayed And if it be forgiveness thou seeks If our souls are destined to find the other So be it on that rejoicing day
