hope

can you die of a broken heart?
can you see light while in the dark?
can you breathe without air?
can you hope without fear?

if every night turns to day
can you live...without a way?
if every ocean has low tides
can you mistrust, but still confide?

yes, every smile has a frown
and every tide can still drown
not every wound will stop and clot
not every battle will be fought

you will give in,
yes you might lose
you won't get out
without a bruise

but maybe love can find away
to escape, but not have to pay
maybe dawn will beat the dusk
perhaps the scars will turn to dust
