POEM STARTER

Submitted by delilah

When all hope fails, what do we rely on?

Write a poem or story on what we turn to when we lose hope. Think about the emotions and problems that occur when this happens, and how it's dealt with.

The Dawn Comes

There are hopeless tears of grief and sorrow

And yet the dawn will come tomorrow.

The skies are dim, the world is hollow

And yet the dawn will always follow.


The hopelessness, with carving knives

Recoils in pain when dawn arrives

Its festering in mortal lives

Will all but die while dawn survives.


The blackened sky will light once more

From endless field to calming shore

Cry now in darkness, cry 'til you're sore

The dawn is coming, just like before.
