Hope Outweighs Sorrow

Love feels like it’s magical; your heart burns like it's on fire. And your ears only hear hope; not whispers of a liar. When trust's shield starts to weaken, he shores it up with more lies. And an outpouring of pain replaces truth as it dies. Fear fortifies nagging doubts as they morph into goodbyes. And failed dreams discreetly drown; in tears spilled from crying eyes. Yet, time carries you away; to where hope outweighs sorrow. For, like a river, it flows toward a new tomorrow.
