Hope

Today I see hope

From the pages of my budget

The numbers showed me a way

A way to end my struggles

Between what’s right

And what is wrong

A way to comfort my mind

To stop living with people

Without common sense

When you need a meeting

To teach doctors and nurses

About empathy

You are a train speeding

Towards a cliff

The end is hopeless

The numbers in the book

Gave me a safety net

To jump off the train

My wife and I will hold hands

Walk slowly and peacefully

Towards the sunset, in one piece
