19. We Live In Hopes Poem by PRAVEEN KUMAR English Songs

How deep our bonds
Neither you nor I know,
How far we stretch
To accommodate each
Neither rhyme nor reason
Ever knows.

Steely barriers keep us apart,
Our hearts yet bespeak to each;
Countless years, keeping us afar,
Blunt our fires raging inside,
Our souls yet cry to reach each other.

Though all seems lost, utterly lost,
A subtle spark of hope binds us fast;
In darkness around, from either side,
Sparkles of new dawn visit us both
And we glow in dreams of meeting each.

Dreams are mere dreams
While harsh realities jolt from our sleeps
And we have our share of dips and ups;
Yet, an invisible chord beyond words,
We feel in souls binding our cores.

How long this wait and frustrations?
How long daydreams melting in vain?
How long so bound, yet infinitely far?
Hopes sour nowhere as in frustrations,
Yet, we live in hope, for only hope bonds us.
