Thoughts to the mind, feelings to the heart say,
Beneath every despair, there's hope, come what may.
Whatever happens, happens for the good,
A truth often heard, but seldom understood.
Pope said, "whatever is, is right",
Against the unseen forces, we still wish we could fight.
Lying dormant as a virtue, can not elicit compassion,
For, evasiveness mustn't turn into a self destructing passion.
Draw life from where the void exists,
Suffering as a source of strength, will never let grief persist.
Un-dying faith, never-ending smiles,
God's splendid grace, spread across the miles.
Finding your way, out of every hardship and strife,
Purging the soul of every possible emotion, is the supreme goal of life.
When the cup of joy, seems to be emptying,
When every familiar face, turns to you interrogating,
call my name...
When life and all its strategies, seem to grow exasperating,
Drops of passion and fervor, seem to be evaporating,
Don't be afraid, joys await...
When dreams and hopes, seem to be deserting,
And that is left, seems to be debilitating,
Let my shoulders be your pillow...
Waiting to give you courage and love,
To reach together, the heights,
and to give you wings to soar the Heavens above.
