REWIND

I remember a memory
I play it again in my heart
I remember that smile
Wish I could just pause there
But the memory is rolling
And moves to another part
I remember those tears
And my heart rips apart!
But the pain is also transitory
Like the smile, it also disappears into the past
Then I smile; the past is gone, yesterday is over
And it has certainly made me stronger
Thoughts come for a while
Belief is what remains longer
I still cherish memories and rewind the past
Now with a conviction that Love is what always lasts...

HOPE

Hope...
Of light after darkness
Of joy after sadness


Hope...
Of laughter after tears
Of strength after fear


Hope...
Of pleasure after pain
Of sunshine after rain


Hope...
Of return after going
Of meeting after parting


Hope...
Colours our dreams and gives us solace
So that we can touch the peak of success


Hope...
Always keeps us going
We all love to hope, though unknowing!
