ANSA… for the love of writing
Like a melody being sang, yet no chorus is being heard. But with hope, there is new possibilities that can give our sad lives a resurrected start.
So remember to keep your head up high as you sing a new song. To rise from your sorrow and allow the light of music to brighten up your life. To find the courage to be yourself no matter the trials and tribulations that you may face. To find the strength to keep moving forward, just like the rhythm of a melody.
If you close your eyes and feel the rhythm, you'll understand, This is Life's Symphony. Don't ever give up and keep striving towards glory. Find yourself in the music and let it guide you as you move forward in this journey. Just keep that hopeful spirit alive and you'll make it through the hard times and feel the joy when the clouds part.
So find a tune and let it lead you to a brighter world, with clear skies and a warm rain that leads you to a renewed, refreshed path. So keep up the fight and find the notes that help you survive; the beat that keeps your heart in tempo and plays continuously in your ear. There are no boundaries to this beautiful melody and you will soon find out that this Life's Symphony, plays every day
HOPE
The day's over
The curtains closing
I'm down and sober
But I'll keep waiting
Waiting for a chance
Looking for an opportunity
A moment of wonder and dance
An opening for peace and serenity
H.O.P.E; Holding On Patiently Eternally
Though things around look bleak
Yet I would look forward meekly
Never will my bank of expectations leak
This world won't keep me down
My dreams forever will soar
Neglecting anything that seeks my drown
Wait a moment so you hear me roar
Circumstances do not define me
Nothing in my habitat can restrain
Pressing on through life's deep sea
I'll be a jolly traveller on the Earth's train
People may write me off
But I'll rise up
I won't give in to their rebuff
I'll have reasons to raise my trophies and my cup
Hanging to every wish I make
Believing in all the dreams I close my eyes to see
I know I'll never break
Hope is what holds it all through eternity
