Have Hope

Have hope. The world is not a terrible place.

Have hope. There are pieces of goodness in every face

Though it seems to be spiraling 

And everything's gone wrong

People are still trying

We're learning to be strong

Have hope in humanity, faith in the free

Have hope that we can become who we want to be

The news may be darkness day after day

But if you look, you'll see that's not the way

Things really are- that people are trying

To get better, to live stronger, to stop lying and crying 

Have hope in your family and your friends

Have hope in love that never truly ends

We're  accepting differences, in the open for once

It's inevitable that some will act like a dunce

These are first tries for many, new  experiences for all

Of course some few will slip up and fall

Have hope that they're learning, trying their best

Have hope that some people are not like the rest

Have hope.
