Persevere

Sing the song of our forefathers building.
Ancestral stories that keep us surviving.
For when days are dark and emotions grey these are what keep us ready.

Storms can’t last forever.
Darkness shall always break.
Whatever ill may come cannot be an eternal wake!

Feast within these halls built to last.
These are our homes that will stand fast.
Hope is never much farther than just past the nearby horizon.

Howling winds will subside.
Cloudy skies will clear from view.
What damage has been done can be recovered from!

Eons of patience have prepared our minds.
Forgotten for too long this knowledge now reborn.
Struggle is not a permanence.
Before long we’ll find peace.
Joy will fill our hearts and minds.
Ruthlessness will be crushed by being warm and kind.

Scream the histories of those who came before.
Chant in unison to prove we are so much more.
Murk breaks to reveal peaceful stars twinkling on this inky canvas!
