Sadness falls like rain,
Weeping tears of pain.
Grief grips the heart,
Tears won't depart.

Memories linger still,
Echoes of a shrill.
Wishful thoughts we keep,
Eager to escape and leap.

Hope shines like a star,
Guiding us from afar.
Dreams we dare to chase,
Heartbeats quicken pace.

Love blooms like a rose,
Healing wounds and woes.
Peace settles in the soul,
Making us whole.

Though the journey's long,
We push on, strong.
With hope in our hearts,
A new day starts.
