Hope

darkness surrounds me
overcome by the blackness
i recognise fear

forever present
prowling amidst pale shadows
gloom hangs overhead

i reach out beyond
straining to grasp light above
  glimmers of hope float

Rebirth

soft wind blow through me

gently lift my spirit high

soar beyond the clouds

in the up draught float

hovering above the realm

lofty dreams advance

hope wafts in the breeze

caresses the soul’s shadows

promising rebirth
