Hope
What does hope look like?
It looks like you
That’s what
You’ll be sixteen one day
So embarrassed by me
You’re half that age
And already are sometimes
But I can’t help it
You make my heart SOAR
And yet there you are
Oblivious
To the truth
That simply by being
You give me life
Every day
Even when you’re not there
You’re there
Light at the end
Of every tunnel
However long and dark
Hope a reason to be
To believe
I know nothing
Whatsoever
About anything really
But the love I have
For you
Is everything
All I need
To know
To feel
To be
Thank you
