Metaphorical

A man's strength 
can be measured by his appetites, 
trust that your longing 
will leave you 
and that will give you strength. 
A human being 
is mortal and changeable 
with desires and impulses 
hopes and despairs. 
The night brings no hope of escape 
in these gloomy times 
let us continue in the hope 
of poet's ray of light 
which will vaniquish the darkness, 
the darkness of that time 
and for always. 
The world is so dark right now, 
winds whisper of high hopes 
victory is in the skies, 
smile as you used to smile 
and inspire my heart.

Inspire my heart
