Handsome man,

my hope for love

forever lives on.

.

Hopeful life force

despite death and loss

must be found

in the depths.

.

Hate and envy

have no place

in my heart

that beats.

.

Where are you now,

You whom I loved?

Where are you now,

You whom I could love?

.

Hope lives,

Hope lifts up,

Hope sparks the fire,

Hope lights the future.
