The Battle for Hope

There are battles to be fought…
Some cannot be fought without a sword,
and some of them are fought within.
The Heart raises its sword against the Ego,
cut deep wounds in the flesh.


Tears of agony and pain,
a cry of pure despair and frustration.
And then, in the darkest moment,
a path of light and the purest colours appear.
It leads to a heavenly sphere,
somewhere you never thought you’d find yourself.


But the cross-roads are many
and temptation keeps you on call.
A clear vision of something you never thought you’d know.
Darkness stir your inner most fear,
draws life right out of your soul.


Loneliness seems to be your closest friend.
If you could only find the light again,
that soft whisper and strength of love once more…
And the battle rages on and on…
Endlessly it seems,
lost in advance…


But deep within your heart,
there is a little and faint flame burning.
If you could find it,
and hold on to it…
That is when you give light a meaning.
That is when you light the flame of hope…
