Hope

It begins with those dark days,

The days when everything seems lost,

You feel it.

A small warm glow

Continuously burning in your chest.

A small pool of heat that builds

Until it consumes your very being.

You remember it.

Remember when it went out before

And with a vengeance, my dear

You come surging back to me

Bringing me the warmth that only you offer.

The continuation of more,

Easing my suffering

And bringing to me the courage that I so seek to carry on.

I'll keep you in my heart, in my head.

I'll wear you proudly on my sleeve

I'll share you with the world

For you, my angel, are Hope.
