Hope

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

When nothing is everything And you’ve got something to say Just cast your thoughts and words along the way And after all is said and done And there’s nothing left to say Take a break for all your worth Stand up make your presence felt Just take time to say, Give something to those who care But as you stare upon their face Please try to disguise your hate When everything once wrong is right It’s up to you to say Every single word that’s in your way Take the time to make some sense Of the thoughts in your head What the crystal ball can’t tell us all Is our reason to be When I say that right is wrong It’s wrong to say I’m right I’m just seeing feel the love And spread it to those in sight Sometimes life makes little sense As your friends are cast away But as you land upon gods shore Tell him not to kill no more I just want to take the hand Of everyone aware That meaning is just meaningless If the meaning isn’t care Don’t go thinking I’m not wrong ‘Cos who am I to say The words of god may fill my mind but say… Give all you have to give and then live One more time around, Spread something good Throughout your home town Bring your friends don’t drag them down Life is here to stay And answers in the oceans heart Think it’s safe to say That we will live to see a better day Written April 9th, 2002 © on Apr 10 2002 04:01 AM PST   10 • 0
