DESPERATION TURNED TO HOPE
IN MY HEART WHERE I GROPE
FOR SOME SPARK OF RECOGNITION
UNDERSTANDING ALL IS DENIED
HAPPINESS, A FLEETING KISS
LOVERS IN A SHORT-LIVED BLISS
SMILES FRAGILE CRACK AND BREAK
JOY IS BORN AND THEN ESCAPES
INTO COLORS OF EVERY HUE
RED, YELLOW, THEN ON TO BLUE
FLAMES LEAPING SOON BURN OUT
HEARTS ON FIRE TURN ABOUT
LAUGHING TURNS TO SCREAMING-CRYING
THEN LOVE BEGINS DYING
DESPERATION TURNED TO HOPE
IN MY HEART WHERE I GROPE
