Here and now
We must stand
What will the years bring?
What will they decide?
From those who came before
Had dealt with hardships
Much like us
👁
Must we rise and fall
As they did so
In the year 2033
We wait for one to find
That piece of Eden
Lost to all
To tell us what the truth is
And if we made the right call
👁
We are all grains of sand
Cascading across each other
Learning and shaping
A new year
A new order
👁
This image in my mind
That of an old dream
Tells me we are not done yet
We serve the light
And fight in the shadows
👁
Not knowing our purpose
and in the year 2033
We share our stories
And speak across time
Our suffering was worth it
In the end

Great dreams to hope by. Will the world listen and learn.
I really enjoyed the hope embedded in this wonderful poem, Jazzy. Every stanza had something special but my favorite were the last two lines. Such a positive way to think about things, thanks for sharing!
Love the gentle hope in this, we definitely fight in the shadows but they exist because light exists 🤍
Lovely… “ This image in my mind That of an old dream Tells me we are not done yet We serve the light And fight in the shadows.” So true! I also like the cute icon of the eye!
It is all worth it in the end!! Beautiful poem Jazzy.
