Hope Over Terror

In the nowhere of the asphalt night, I grasped a little breath beneath my shadow.
I was a human, mediocre at being perfect.
But imperfection was secretly lurking beneath my soul.

I felt a hollow lie that in me that needs to be downwind.
But who am I to reproach such a melancholy life.

Tears sting my eyes as I reflect on this world of mine.
The terror strikes me like a thundering fire that can’t be quenched.

But then I felt hope giggling, replacing the terror with relentless and inexplicable force.
That’s how I realized hope lifts the hopeless soul with such a happy ending.

Hope obliterates the memories of tough times.
Hope in such a hopeless world.
