Hope

Written for 9th grade English class

Before the coming storm,

After the falling rain,

While the world is silent,

As I sit and stare,

Beyond my crumbling grave.

 

Even though I think that all my hope is lost,

When I see the faces all around,

Since they are smiling I turn up my frown,

Because I begin to see the hope that’s found in me,

I soon remember I am not just born to die, but born to be.
