No Hope, No Life Poem by Hebert Logerie

If you're hopeless
You are essentially dead
Where you're lifeless
And you do not see red.

As long as you are alive
You must keep on hoping
And dreaming of seeing
Better days live.

Death is not an option
Hope keeps the world in motion
No life, no hope.

Bring the soap
To do away with the scums
Of pessimism. Bring the drums!
