Hold On, Hope Lives

In Every Shadow, a Seed of Light Awaits

When the night is dark and the road is long,

When every step feels painfully wrong,

Remember, dear heart, this truth to keep:

Even in shadows, dreams do not sleep.

The storms may rage, the winds may howl,

But within you lies a strength, so proud.

In the depths of despair, a fire ignites,

Guiding you forward, through endless nights.

When the world seems cold, and all is lost,

When life’s bitter lessons come at a cost,

Hold on, dear soul, to the light within,

For hope is a seed, ready to begin.

No mountain too high, no valley too deep,

No obstacle stands where your spirit leaps.

With every fall, rise again, stand tall,

For hope is the key that unlocks it all.

In the quiet moments, when doubt takes its place,

Find the courage to continue the race.

For life is a journey, not a fleeting chance,

And hope is the rhythm in life’s dance.

So don’t lose faith when the path is unclear,

Trust in your journey, persevere.

For hope is the compass that points to the sun,

And with it, dear heart, the battle is won.
