Hope

This is the end of my drive by bubbling, I can’t stay away, so I will be starting religiously again tomorrow. So I leave tongiht with a poem on the lighter side.
She is hope, that little thing that stand by all our sides, but she is broken by the state of the world, all the war, pain and suffering and hopeless thoughts are hurting her, no-one wants the light, why is it that people only see the light when the die, is their something wrong?
She wants light to be here, not only in death, change our way’s is the message or we will have no hope.
Sounds dark, but really it light or the search for light…well it has got the word light in it…okay, I’ll try better, here it is anyway ; )
Thanxz for your patience of my unlucky unfortunate events as of late, I really appreciate it, thanxz friends!!!

She is crushed by the hopeless,
Like acid to the world,
Melting all the kindness,
And breaking the passion,
Crumbling,
Hurting,
Feeling useless in the dark,
Bleeding,
Needing,
The love we lack.

She weeps over souls,
And war for peace,
Torn children,
And crying mothers,
Dead fathers,
And family smothers,
Loneliness is comfort,
As she holds the dead,
Unable to turn her head,
She sees it all,
And cries the blood you shed.

Stop and listen,
Hear her voice,
That whisper of madness,
That change,
That you laugh at,
Forget the masks,
And the tit for tat.

Fucking put it aside,
Drop your sword,
That killed your neighbour,
Swallow the words,
You were going to shoot,
Drop that gun,
Stand,
Don’t run,
For once be humane,
Take my life,
If stops all the pain.

Reach a hand,
And help her stand,
Hold her tear,
Hold her near,
Tell her all will be fine,
Show it clear,
Show your love,
And show it clear.

Hope,
She is all of that word,
Essence and soul,
The heart of man,
The heart you stole,
Must she loose herself,
And cut her light,
Must she watch another die,
In a mindless fight?

I see her hope,
Her tears of death,
Holding his hand,
And taking his breath,
As he smiles back his love,
She holds him close,
And Asks…

“Why is it at the end,
We see the light?”

    a very deep insight into a persons character, whilst at the same time talking about issues on a larger scale, brilliantly interwoven together!

    Wow I really like this and it’s so true! It’s only when people are at the brink of death that they seek help, want to make things right, and look for the light. I think this is something valuable you have written for the world. The light is everywhere, not just when you die and we have to make things better. Strong and honest poem. ....
    “_Why is it at the end,
    We see the light_?”….awesome line. A definite favorite.

  • Spraven replied

    Yes true, loght is everywhere, not just the tunnel at death. Make the most of searching for it here than on the other side. I believe life is more imporatant than the the wait for a heaven, I never want to leave here, lol
    Thanxz Erika, I’m glad you liked this friend, those are the best lines I think, the whole poem is worhtless without them,lol Thanxz again friend!!! and for the fav, I appreciate that ; )

    “Cause baby.. there is no death”.. great Piece!!! I love your inquisitive nature my friend.. hey how is your hand???? xoxoxoo

  • Spraven replied

    In the recycling universe, I guess that’s right friend ; )
    I think looking for light here and now is more important than finding it in death.
    Thanxz for your comment friend, I really appreciate it ; )
    Yeah, the hand will just have to be fine, it was his own fault, he will have to suffer his stupidity.

    Mesmerizing poem! I think you have been touched by loneliness and emptiness. I cannot imagine it’s possible to write so otherwise. Sensible poem with the apogee of the last two lines! Very spiritual! Love that.

  • Spraven replied

    I guess in writting you have to put yourself in there and yes to experience those feeling it makes it easier to write them I guess, Thanxz for your insight friend ; )
    Thanxz for the comment, yeah, I think the last to lines are the best, thanxz again friend!!

    excellent work….these words are so true…“Why is it at the end, We see the light?”, what prevents us beforehand?

  • Spraven replied

    Thanxz wigs, yeah, they are very true, I guess life for some can get dark and we can walk the road and deny the light, but hope never stops even when we do.
    Thanxz for your comment and time friend, I really appreciate it!!!!! ; )
