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 absence

Hope is like a candle

Flickering in the night

But what do you when it’s extinguished

The flame now naught to our eyes


But there it sits,

an invisible light inside

Waiting in the dark

Knowing it will ignite


For hope can never die

Fade away in the wind

It’s in our bones

Inked into the patterns of our skin


And when all else fails

And we have no real shot

We still hope to believe

Because in all truth,


that’s all we’ve got.
