ONE MUST TRY TO HOPE AGAIN
One must try to hope again
Its hard
Too many sicknesses deaths
Too many lost
And too much of one’s own world gone
Still each day is a new day
And one must try to hope again
Being old is tiring and boring
And uselessness hurts very much
But somehow there has to be something
A grandchild
A song
A sudden revelation of beauty
There are still things in life
Though most of life is gone
And most hopes gone with it
One must try to hope again
To stay alive
To be the best one can
For those who still care
Not to let the team down
One must try to hope again
And try to keep going.
