Hope Poem by Esther Tan
Hope
The light at the end of darkness,
The fire in cold winter,
The promise of spring,
The lifeline of all in despair,
Hope.
The essence of life,
shredded,
torn into pieces,
light leaves,
Darkness dawns.
The pitch-black world,
Where righteousness is but void,
Where darkness rules,
Where murder is everyday life,
Where living is a privelege,
Where stealing is justified.
Why do people steal the good?
Why does the world conform to evil?
Why is hope disappearing?
Anxiety attacks those who weakens
Depression suffocates
A world where hope is but a distant memory.
Lovely piece of poetry, well articulated and nicely penned in good diction with conviction. An insightful depiction of ugly blend of hope and anxiety occasioned by the prevalent reign of evil in the world, with subtle call for universal brotherhood of man bearing in mind the interrelatedness of reality. Thanks for sharing Esther. Please read my poem POETIC MASTERPIECE.

Why do people steal the good? Why does the world conform to evil? Why is hope disappearing? ..... so many great questions...... they are real questions which take away hope....... but without hope how can we live...... seeing the light at the end of the tunnel is a very good image........ thank you very much. tony
