Hope

Hope is a strange and mysterious passenger

That holds you aloft when nothing else will

It keeps a tentative flutter alive in your chest

When the rest of your body's in failure.

Hope is an ache that won't heal, and you itch it

Because there's something it tethers inside you so strong

You simply can not ignore discard or erase it

No matter how much you try to move on.
