Excerpts From The Book Hope

She's Worlds Away
Could it possibly be a dream?
Or is she still sleeping?
No
She's worlds away
Far from here
Yet close to our hearts

Capture This Light
Grab this light
Keep it in our hearts
It will haunt us
Especially in the night
It will follow us
Everywhere we go
Whenever we turn around
 
Forget This Day
Seems endless
It lives on for centuries
Unlike any other day
Why?
Could some of us forget this day?
