From the depth of despair,
Comes new beginnings.
And when one light burns out,
Another one starts beaming.
***
When you think you’ve had enough,
Of this life to keep on living.
That’s when you need a miracle,
For you to believe in.
***
In the midst of the dark,
Do you wake up screaming.
Shaking from the nightmares,
That for month you’ve been dreaming.
***
Do you stay awake at night,
Listening to the rain falling.
Wondering about what,
Tomorrow will be bringing.
***
From your window breaks,
The sunlight starts beaming.
A new day has a beginning,
And life …. It just keeps on scheming.
