There Is Hope


Grief is never easy

During the day you lock away your feelings of sadness

So others don't see


At night, you let those feelings out

As you cry by yourself, begging for the pain to go away

No one understands the hurt


In the morning, when you have to start a new day alone

You don't feel anything

You're numb and maybe that's better than feeling


As life continues it's easier to hide the feelings

Feelings of desperateness, sadness, and hurt

But you're heart doesn't feel whole

Nothing can replace what you've lost


You begin to recognize there is still hope

There's a light at the end of the tunnel

Guiding you out of the darkness


And when finally your heart starts to feel whole again

You realize you were never alone 

Someone was always next to you

Unnoticed, guiding you out of the darkness


There is always hope at the end that dark tunnel

All you need is faith that you're being led

Led to the hope long forgotten

There is Hope
