Our futures are dim
but our hope is very strong
To succeed in life
we must accept we are wrong

Our futures are dim
but we are still naive
To succeed in life
we must accept, but believe

The author's comments:
I was inspired by a poem about the condition of racial segregation in the 1900's. My poem is about the hope for a better world even when we know its doubtful.
