That can of hope

 I walk like a paper on the wind .

On the old street of my unknown journey .

As i watch the corner from left to right,

I remember the days of my life .


How i used to play on the side street,

Laughing in the midst of a heavy rain .

With all the fear and tiresome things,

While my tummy feels the pain .


Where everyone look down on me,

I march the road with a head up high.

How funny it was to think i am proud ,

When I’m holding just a can to roam around .


Sometimes i have penny,

More times I don’t have.

But that doesn’t stop me,

And continue to walk around.

Now years and years had been passed,

And with that i’ve been through a lot.

I guess those cans bring hope to what i reach,

For who i am , to what i am,

For now i deserve a spot at least .


As i went to the last corner of the street ,

I saw a girl begging and in need.

I wipe my tears , and walk towards her .

“There is hope “ ,I whispered.

“Yes there is “, she answered .


Life is not a fairytale ,

It isn’t about luck or misery.

But one thing for me that was so sure .

There is hope , there is love ,

You just need to work it out.
