Hope

Hate is taking over
Flames are burning forever
But we try to stay together
And crying is not the answer

People might be starving
People might be dying
Still you’re here to give them shelter
And we always pray to make it better

Peaceful and quiet were you
Before anger and war came through
Perhaps someday people will understand
That you might not make it through the end

Lack of respect and miscommunication
Today you are in need of some compassion
Tomorrow might not be a better day
But we hope for the best in every way

Others may be careless
But you will never be pointless
And as long as beautiful minds evolve
Than your problems will be solved

Strong as a rock, soft like a feather
Your heart is pure despite of the weather
Troubled may it be
But courage and you will see…

After all these years of suffering
We will keep on believing
That our beloved country will survive
That Haiti, someday will revive

The love for your country, compassion with what it is going through, hope and trust that it will make it.

We must overcome hate. I believe Haiti will stand tall again. Many hard times in the nation of Haiti. I like the honesty of your words and the hope in the ending. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.
