Hope

Folder: 
A Beautiful Life

Such a beautiful thing within Pandora's Box...
It's so small and precious within a heart,
But it can be easily be stepped on by despair.
Can such purity last for so long in this world?

Falling...
Falling...
Falling into the darkness...
How can I survive at the bottom when there's no hope left?

So much pain and misery in my life,
Yet I'm still bound to this world.
Hope is like the chain of eternity,
Binding my to the gravity of reality.

Relying on hope is like taking medicine;
Do it too much and you'll die...
Tears and blood have been shed too much,
But the comfort of hope still remains.

Smiling...
Smiling...
Smiling at the security and comfort...
It's a wonderful miracle to experience.

And when I look at him in the eyes,
My heart is caressed by such sweet hope,
Knowing that I can spend my life with him
Without having any despairs imprisoning my soul...

I wrote this for a collaboration contest thing, but I feel pretty proud of what I wrote, so I'm going to keep this in my portfolio. I don't know how I managed to write this really well on a drawing paper with a sharpie with a few grammar errors, but I'm proud of it haha

Thank you and I'm glad you

Thank you and I'm glad you enjoyed it. I agree, we all need that one small piece of hope before we fall deep down the darkness and have no medicine to save us from the plague of hopelessness.
