Hope

There is this silence,
Silence that oddly enough, I can hear.
There is this calmness,
Calmness that today, I fear.
There is this truth that’s just not true
and all these people around me
beaten black and blue.
How did it come to this, I have no clue.
All there is left is hope;
Hope that things will be good once again,
The hope that all these efforts won’t go in vain.
