The poem won the award Most Inspirational Love Poem.
Entered into this world of darkness,
This child saw an evil no human should experience,
Sorrow became the boroughs of the soul.
The only words heard “give up, there is no light. Walk away”
Hope gave me a dream that I would find the light.
This child became an adult and found the rays of light.
Chosen by destiny to save lives yet no one understood.
The words heard were “give up, walk away. No one wants you.”
Hope gave me a dream.
In my endeavors, the lives I saved became my mark as one that never gave up.
Words became my passion for a life that I did not expect would touch others.
The words heard would shout “give up. No one wants to hear you.”
Hope gave me a dream.
The lives I touched with my words would unite a following and inspire their humanity.
One day I prayed unto hope that True love would free me.
The words heard would say “who would want to love you. Give up”
I found the love of my life, and together the time we shared moved mountains,
The sun and the moon would dance with the love we had.
One day my love dost said there needs to be time and space, and we cannot be however there is hope.
The words I heard became cruel. “She never wanted you. You failed the one thing you loved.”
Hope gave me a dream.
I shall never give up. She may have walked away for now however in the gloaming, I know she will return.
I dost ask of hope but one thing that should this true love remember and walk back this lifetime that I can say one last thing,
“You may not have thought you were not strong enough, however your love was all I needed.
You may not have thought it was fair to me to not have time, however you were the only fair thing that set me free.”
Hope gave me a dream of what thing could I say to my love and I would say,
“I may cry at night, and hide in the day however your love set me free. Give me but one chance for I know I was your hopes dream.”
