To Hope Poem


It was a lot wasn’t it?

All you have been through so far.

Would you do it over again?

Lived out the same trials without change.

Or maybe you would navigate issues differently.

Logic says you probably would.

***

Hope is not always logical.

I have had dreams where it is very obviously the end of me.

My days are numbered and I have no recourse to save myself.

You would be surprised how acceptance switches to struggle at the end.

Hope in spite of the end.

Why fight then?

***

It shows love of life.

That there was enough good in your life to miss it.

That you probably would go through everything all over again if you had to.

Beauty still exists all the way until the end.

Even if you happen to wake up before the end.

Sometimes it takes an end to even realize it.
