Secret of Hope

Hope, in my belief, the strongest of all human abilities.

 

When the darkest times have come

and you do not know the way

do not fret

for your heart will lead.

 

Not even the strongest of men

could fear no evil

nor could they stand up

when the final test was revealed.

 

But behold!

When all the greatest men have fallen

the littlest will rise, for

Only the size of the heart matters.

 

It is a small chamber of light

a beacon, if you must.

Where the brightest will endure

and the dimmest will demise.

"Not even the strongest of men
could fear no evil"

How true.

"But behold!
When all the greatest men have fallen
the littlest will rise, for
Only the size of the heart matters."

I appreciate that,well written.

Your poem flows well,it sounds great,put together wonderfully.it seems to have to have a David and Goliath theme going,is it inspired by religious beliefs?
