TheLightofHope

By Diego Lopez

Looking at the horizon

Overlooking everything, as the sunlight dies and the darkness begins to conquer the blue skies. We are left in the dark

As we try to find our way back We are struggling through these troubling events to find our way home Our attempts are fruitless. We keep failing

As the darkness spreads throughout the sky

We trip, and fumble and mumble and ask, why do we even try? With nothing guiding us back, we think of going into hiding

After all, we are never going to find our way back. All seems lost in our attempts to make it home. But then…

A light is ignited

A flame that we tamed or a wire that makes electricity isn't what we need in dire times.

It’s better than a lightbulb above our head

It is the light of hope

This is a light that is always shining

A light that can never be extinguished.

When everyone else is in the dark and lost

There is always someone who is a guiding light

So when you feel lost in what we would call a dark world, and when others are lost, Be their light of hope

Be the one to help those fight through the might of the dark

Be a beacon of change

Be a light of hope
