Hope

The fervent hope of mans most inner reaching desire
That devours the desperation of a life led in hopelessness
Optimism brims forth through the dark drapery of despair
Creating that soul searching glow as a fight against the anxieties of reality
 
The visible succour that all see:
Hope
 
Optimism for a being lost in the profundity of wretchedness
A lifeline to ecstasy - a confine
Secure from the period when all you have is nothingness
 
Until, at last, that hope is realised and hoeplessness departs
Leaving a moment, a time for solitude
For the gratification of an experience
the consequence of the sanguine expectation:
 
Hope
