Hope


by Christine Nguyen (17)

I gaze upon the open sky
and down again without a sigh.
I know there is hope in one special place
such as the love and joy in a child's face.

Many emotions I can't explain
these voices inside come with the rain.
Never a doubt to carry on
I see the intricate mysteries of the dawn.

A special twilight shining on me
this special star I try to see.
Often I feel it near,
It helps cover my fear.

Across the canyons of yesterday
no one can explain why one feels this way.
When this power is yours an mine
we will finally see that one star shine.
