Hope

By: Barbara Matijevic

All is good, good is all
All is good, good is all

Is it?
Yes, it is
At least . . .
I need want to believe it is
It’s my hope,
For my sanity

All is good, good is all
All is good, good is all

Ignore Negate the negativity
The torment
The trauma
Focus on what’s good
When helplessness interjects
Think about it

All is good, good is all 
All is good, good is all

Repeat it
Over and over and over
Nothing Something will change
It won’t will get better 
Just keep saying it

All is good, good is all
All is good, good is all

Nothing is changing
But I need some peace
I need to escape
Just give up repeat once more . . .

All is good, good is all 
All is good, good is all

Please, don’t let go,
Just keep saying it
It won’t will be ok
It has always been us
Myself and I
I haven’t have always been there
Always present
For myself

All is good, good is all
All is good, good is all

Things won’t will get better
I lied promise
