// I have tried out a different style of writing where the meaning runs over from one line of the poem to the next. When I showed this poem to one of my Literature teachers, she told me that this is called “Enjambment”, and that I had unknowingly stumbled upon it.
You can refer to the first 4-7 lines of The Waste Land by T.S.Eliot for another example of Enjambment.
Anyway,
I tried writing an inspirational poem but it’s really not my forte. Nevertheless, I tried my best and I ‘hope’ you’ll love it. Drop comments below and share it with as many people as possible ! //
When you feel that
nothing will ever change,
And you’re caught
in a vicious circle of lies;
You’ll feel like
giving up but you won’t,
And you’ll feel like
breaking off all ties.
When you’re stuck
in the toughest of times,
And you sit back,
defeated, and mope;
The inner voice that
prevents you from doing so,
Is a generous voice
called hope.
When everything
doesn’t seem too right,
And the future ahead
doesn’t seem too bright;
And you’re too tired
to put up a fight,
You’ll then see
the heavenly light.
Yes, that heavenly light called hope
will make you strong,
It will help you differentiate
between right and wrong;
Like the cornucopia,
with its never ending delights,
Hope brings the day in,
And banishes the nights.
It motivates us to
wake up and start a new day.
It eradicates sadness,
and shows us a new way;
Of happiness, positivity,
laughter and cheer,
And rids us of our
sometimes unexplainable fear.
Hope shows us
the light in the dark,
It motivates us to wake,
and make an indelible mark;
And when you’re sad,
and not at your best,
Stay strong and let
hope to the rest.
