Hope

Rebecca Chapman

There's always hope in the world we're in.
Despite what you think, the pain will end.
After all the tears and lonely nights,
Just stand up tall; you'll win this fight.
After a storm, a rainbow appears,
letting us know that sunshine is near.
After you cry, you smile again.
The pain you feel will slowly end.
And when you fall, you stand back up. 
Even though it may be tough.
You say you can't do it,
But I know you can.
Sometimes you just need a hand.
There's always hope when you think there's none.
You can't just give up and say you're done.
All you have to do is see, 
there's hope for you, and hope for me.
