Like a vine relying for a support,
I cling to Your hand for encouragement;
And like a flower seeking for sun’s rays,
I crawl towards Your shine for sustenance
For I only bloom under Your guidance;
I only grow when I follow Your ways,
Just a faint of light is a nourishment
For if it’s from You, it’s a big comfort.
God, my heart has no other hope but You
I survive when I see You in my view.

Good use of similes in this piece. The second stanza builds upon the first nicely.
The last two stanza confirm the truth expressed in the first two. God is are only hope. -

Nice,
It is so nice to have hope, thank God we have hope.
This troubled world can be in ruins, but we have hope.
This was very inspirational. Thanks for sharing. Peace.
