Hope.

Life goes on.

Or so they say.

You learn to live,

But never forget.

You look to the stars,

And hope you'll find peace.

But you struggle to calm your heart.

You try to let go,

And hope for a fresh start.

You open your eyes,

And hope you'll see light in the dark.

You quiet your mind,

And hope you'll finally hear,

The voice of the one you lost.

...

But in the darkness only comes pain,

And the voices of the demons who know you by name.

You resist the temptation to give in.

Because the faith you once had,

Has begun to wear thin.

You pick yourself up,

A little weaker than you were before.

With the little hope you have,

You prepare for what tomorrow has in store.
