Hope vs Despair

  A seed of pain , a seed of doubt;
  That sows within, and shatters you without;

  Nurtures itself on fallen weeds;
  Of loss, despair and naught deeds;

  A drop of condescence, a blessing in disguise;
  That sprouts the bud, now stands with pride.

  A sense of repletion, a sense found anew;
  Squeezed out of the soul of a heart once sinew;

  Consumes the insides and withers the outsides;
  Fetters the will, A will once free.

  A fight ensues, a battle of blood.
  The insurmountable enemy,
  now a tree with struts.

  With daggers of wisdom and swords of hope
  Besiege the tree, and shatter its trunk.

  A seed of hope; a seed of belief;
  Now sprouts within,
  and awakens the breath of life;
