Nights long and sleepless
Days long and restless
The heart longing
and find ruminating
Of
What might have been
What could have been
“Think happy thoughts” – they said
“With difficultly, comes ease” – they said
But her heart is too heavy
to feel happy
So she stares blankly
Hoping for a better tomorrow
As she wallows in sorrow.
– Original by GS

There is tomorrow, Mireya. Hope is what keeps us going in life, we hope we will be strong, we hope we will pass a test, we hope we will make new friends, we hope we will never lose the old, we hope someone loves us, we hope that love will find us, we hope when all seems lost, we hope when we are hurt and we hope when we cry.
