Hope

It may seem that there’s nothing left

That the world is dark.

That the fire in your heart is gone

Leaving not a spark.

The world may seem so dreary,

The nights scary and cold.

You are scared of many things,

That horrors might unfold.

It may seem that there’s no one

Out there who loves you.

It may seem that no one cares

About what you do.

People tell you that

You can’t do anything right.

All those words they say

Are to hurt and spite.

It may seem that no one would

Miss you if you were not here.

You think everyone would go on without you

Not shedding a tear.

I am here to tell you,

That you are all wrong.

There are many reasons

Why you should stay strong.

It may seem the world is dark

But really, there is light.

Somewhere out there, shining,

Staying forever bright.

Their insults, their hurtful words,

Don’t let them get to you.

They just say that to hurt

Really, they aren’t true.

It may seem that no one cares,

That you are all alone.

There are many there for you,

You aren’t on your own.

There are many who love you

Who would cry if you were dead.

You may not know but really

They cried when you had bled.

It may seem that there’s nothing left

You just want to cry.

Just find that bit of hope, somewhere

You have the strength to try.
