Only Hope

Photo by Natalie Grainger on Unsplash

when you fall a thousand times
weeping blood tears

when love lies bitter on your tongue
and fear storms every barricade

when you are once more alone
abandoned
lost

only hope will bind your wounds
and whisper
I am still here 

take my hand,
rise again.
