Hope

Hope is an amazing thing
if I was to imagine it
I would imagine it as a beautiful box
full of all my hopes
each one with a different bright colour

It would be in gold wrapping paper
together with a pretty ribbon
That will look absolutely Divine

The box would be precious
It must be kept safe
tucked away in a safe place
away from prying eyes

Whenever you have a moment of despair
go to that special place
where you kept that box of hope hidden away

from all those envying eyes
envying you for staying so happy
no matter what may be

Now open that special box
full of all your beautiful hopes
make sure you unwrap it carefully
so you can use the same gold paper
with the pretty ribbon

Now look inside
You will find your eyes
will be filled with delight
so many happy colours
you will absorb

Now when you are full
wrap the box again

feeling silly for despairing
You go to your prayer mat
asking Allah for forgiveness

This world is indeed full of hope
we just need to make an effort to keep it alive
don't let anything take that away from you

Despairing will keep you stuck
Hoping will keep you going

I can see the light

I can see the light
It's right at the end of the road
or so the expression goes

I can see the light
I will get to it
eventually I will be their

I can see the light
all I have to do
is walk towards It

I can see the light
yes I will have to walk
walk on rocky road's
That will cause a few scratches

I can see the light
It's no problem
It's not that hard to get to it
all it will take is a little effort

I can see the light
Ignore all that negative pain
just keep on looking towards the light
walk right towards it
the scratches can be polished away
It will all be over soon
Soon it will be forgotten
remembered when needed

I can see the light
all things are positive
even the negative
the light Will keep on burning
as long as I keep on hoping.
