Sadness
From the depths of my sorrows,
I search
for the hope
that I long for.
Where are you my hope
my comfort,
my peace?
I await your presence
your company,
your companionship.
It is dark where I wait.
Bring your light
for I long to see
the face of joy!
Where can you be found?
I search
for the hope,
comfort, peace,
light, joy,
And yet all I find
are more sorrows.
I refuse to give up,
to give in
to defeat.
So won’t you meet me
kind hope?
Come closer!
I long to see your face!
