Hope

Funny how it begins

Trickles in

Wearing a grin.


It comes at you

From out of the blue

Wishing to

Your faith renew


Still, I hide

From all sides

Knowing -

I've been here before

Knowing I've tried


But it pulls at my heart

Wishing to jumpstart

That dreamer

That lives with me.


"You got this!

Your time is now.

Don't second-guess.

Don't ask how."


It whispers sweetly in my ear

Reminding me it is near

Reminding me-

don't give in to fear.


Hope -

This dreamer still has some

Her time as come

To seize her moment

in the sun.


Whatever may be

May I not stand

in the way of me.

May I just accept

And not expect.


This dreamer has hope

I've learned to cope

With the downside of life

The pain and the strife.


But I've learned how that ray

Can get bigger day by day

If I just get out

of my own way.


Accept what comes

Believe in self.

And one day

I just may

See my writings

upon a shelf.
