H.O.P.E.
“Hang tight”
Dark nights
Can’t breathe when there’s no light.
“Hold on”
Pain ends?
Ash blowin in warm winds
“You’re strong”
Guess so.
Eyes water when I’m all alone.
“Keep goin”
Where to start?
Can’t see when it’s so dark.
“Clear your mind”
It’s all gone.
What am I feelin if it’s not numb?
“I love you”
I know.
But what’s the point if I don’t?
“Hang tight”
Dark nights.
Can’t breathe when there’s no light.
