Hope

Mediterranean See, Puçol (Spain), June 2019

A cold void sets in,
makes my core shiver,
makes my stand in this world
crumble.

Roaring despair consumes
everything I built,
a barren landscape
after the smoke.

Gently, the breeze of hope
sweeps away
ashes and crumbles,
lightens the load.

A new chapter is born,
new pages blank, but full,
new goals to pursue.

Life is about to restart,
green of hope floods my days
with dreams fulfilled.
