Hope

At the dawn it was born

Till dusk it lived on

Surviving moment by moment

Hope lasts for only that long.

Hope of a light in the darkest of the hour

Hope of a bud to become a flower

Hope that dwells inside every heart

No matter how much you want

With hope you can never part.

The lost searching for direction

The dejected mourning for compassion

The frail aiming for the valiant

The sinner waiting for remission

Hope is the one to give mercy

Hope has been and will always be.

Hope is the evil that prolongs despair

Hope is a doubt in reverse gear

Hope is a protest to the truth's might

Hope is a lie yet so right

When will it end? You will never have a clue

You may abandon hope
But hope never abandons you.

Hope is something you will always need in life. Never loose it. If you loose it, it will be hard to get it back( sort of an experience). Hope tells the truth about you. It will never leave you in till you die. Great poem!
