hope

hold on and the pain will end

Gliding alongside the shadows

Leering the kindly tempest of the heart

Blinded by the sullen feelings

Coaxing the sparkling lantern

To shed its luminous rays upon me 

Lay me a road of roses through dusky forest 

Pull me hard pull me softly

Don't rescue me so hastily

Through the grimy well toss me a rope 

Rope which i shall hang on so tight 

A rope of hope

You are so right. We must hold on to something and I take this rope to be hope or faith . So much positivism in this write...Thank you for the uplifting today...:)

Sometimes we all need to grasp that rope of hope and hold on for dear life. May that someone care enough to toss it to you. Your friend in words, Pete
