hope seems lost


your kiss is sweet in mystery
to others, not unknown
i long to feel your softness
touch this heart of stone

like a whisper held in thunder
is my prayer under my tears
to keep me safe and searching
till you find me waiting here

it seems all hope is lost
but i don’t despair
i know God can hear my prayer

if we were meant to face our lives
together, hand in hand
then that makes clear emotions
i don’t yet understand

but i still seek the sun
here in my darkest hour
i will not test your love
on the pedals of a flower
