No One Is Hopeless
Rosualdo is just an ordinary person with an extraordinary God, who wants to spread God’s words and love through writing articles and poems.
But God will never forget the needy;
the hope of the afflicted will never perish. (Psalm 9:18 NIV)
When hope has gone, despair began to manipulate
as a broken-hearted soul looking for comfort
searching and grasping for the light to illuminate
in the gloomy and vague journey of grieve transport
Despair is my new intruding and stay-in companion
hugging and kissing like a fresh detested lover
dominating my exhausted heart with the rule of pain and irritation
and wanting and wishing to live and breath forever
It injected my being with the syringe of affliction and misery
imprisoned me in the labyrinth of mental and emotional unrest
exterminating my inner strength with immense agony
and weakening my confidence and put it to sleep and rest
But when I notice the bright and luminous sunup
whispering in wind a message of a strong hope
my whole being desires to battle and be lifted up
and to break out from despair’s tangling and trapping rope
When I lift my eyes and attention to heaven
with courage and faith for a longing deliverance
God stretches out his hands to help and regain
my hope and strength to fight despair’s annoyance
Now I learned the wonderful and valuable lesson
that no one is hopeless if he knows the God of hope
keeping and using the faith in every painful occasion
for victory will always reside in the side of those who cope
