Hope

Hope is an elusive butterfly. It's beauty takes wings and when it's gone, it's goodbye!

Can you find me out there Looking for you? I,ve been lost in a shadow No sun shining thru.

I've searched for you In castles and caves. In forests of blackness And unmarked graves.

You're a bottle of wine, A half empty cup. A lady in waiting A child growing up.

Drink to me. I'll drink to you. My passions are empty. My boasts are few.

Find me. Devour me. Make me anew. Give me a future Where dreams come true.

Wake me. Take me In the morning sun. A spry young lad On a furious run.

Seeking the answers To the questions of birth. Slaying black dragons All over the Earth.

What stayed with you?

A line that lingered, a feeling, a disagreement. Great comments are as valuable as the original piece.
