Throughout the
Passing of time
Day
Night
Twilight
I remain
Hopeful
Days
Turn to
Weeks
Turn to
Months
Which escape into
Years
Obstacles
The size of
Mt. Everest
Stand in the way
Of happiness
Of the future
As I knock them down
One by one
Am hopeful
As I look forward
To tomorrow
No matter
Who or what
Disappoints me
Regardless
Of how much
I might hurt
Pointless
To look back
Hopeful
Always a 10
Despite everything;
Stepping over
The wormhole
Of opposition
I refuse to listen to
What I can't
Or that I won't
My mind is set
I will
Absolutely
Positively
Do
Let the shadows
Of the past
The smudges
Of self-doubt
Or disgust of others
Vanish
Before the ever growing
Light
Not worth
My time
My space
My thought
My breath
I smile
In the other direction
Away from
Pessimistic ideals
And chauvinistic demons
Reaching toward
The angel's halo
Will now
And forever more
Be eternally
Hopeful
