forefathers said, certainly

I always knew,
“right will finally be victorious over injustice,”
but I never knew the context

would it be that the butterflies would be attracted to spring growth?
would it be that leaky facets would cure themselves alone?
would it be that preparation is the key to success?

certainly, the hopes and dreams of these friends of ours
are to be realised this way
certainly, their money and efforts can’t go unnoticed by the general public
in their wishes for a quick return
certainly, my friends in the deep couldn’t have let go of the necessary urges
to find this fantasy hiding deep within

but I always knew that
“as they walk through the valley of shadows, they make it a place of springs,”
or so I said that fine day seven years ago
