Gasping for Hope

I am tired.
I need to breathe.
I need to gasp for air.

I am devastated—
Shattered dreams, false hope.
I need to gasp for air.

I am trapped.
I need to break this cycle.

I take a deep breath; I will face the sunrise,
A ray of hope,
A ray of strength.

Step by step, I shall rise.
Step by step, I shall rejuvenate.

I breathe slowly…
I will learn to hope again.

A new day has broken .. breathe slowly  strength will  come
